Dear all,
If you have earned a PhD degree in China in the last 3 years and would like to do a Postdoc at Karolinska Institute in Sweden, please see the project below:
*Dynamic Changes in Functional Brain Connectivity over the course of Alzheimer’s Disease* The aim of this project is to apply new methods that analyse brain connectivity as a highly dynamic process across different stages of AD. This will be performed by combining resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging with graph theory methods in different cohorts of patients and healthy controls. Once the dynamic brain network changes have been identified, their relationship with CSF biomarkers and cognitive function will be assessed. In addition, it will also be possible to apply machine-learning algorithms in this project as well as combine the data with anatomical brain connectivity measures derived from diffusion tensor imaging.
The ideal candidate should have the following qualities: - A PhD in neuroimaging, computational science, engineering, physics, medicine, statistics, neuropsychology or a related field; - Experience in statistical techniques, programming, or scripting; - Experience with functional magnetic resonance imaging, diffusion tensor imaging, positron emission tomography or other neuroimaging techniques; - Clinical or research experience with aging and/or neurodegenerative disorders; - Good writing and communication skills in English; - Good record of scientific publications.
If you are interested in applying for a scholarship, please send an email with your CV to *joana.pereira@ki.se joana.pereira@ki.se *as soon as possible.
Best wishes, Joana
