Northwestern’s Mesulam Center is 1 of 33 NIA-funded Alzheimer’s Disease Research Centers, and home to the SuperAging Project and studies of atypical dementia syndromes. We are located on Chicago’s downtown campus, nestled between the Magnificent Mile and the city's beautiful lakefront.
Prior experience with Alzheimer's disease is
not a requirement.
The primary responsibilities of the two positions are to use analytical, statistical, and programming skills to help collect, curate, analyze, and interpret biomedical data, including neuroimaging and biomarker derivatives. Both roles will work alongside PhD investigators to develop data-driven solutions and answer scientific questions about aging, Alzheimer’s disease, and related dementia syndromes.
Successful candidates for the two positions will have proportional prior experience and education:
(1) The research data analyst will have a MS or PhD, and/or several years’ experience in data science, computer science, biomedical engineering, or neuroscience.
(2) The research study assistant should have a BA or BS and be interested in learning the fundamentals of neuroimaging, from data collection to analysis.
