I'd be very grateful if you could forward to the distribution list:
Post-doctoral Positions in Affective Neuroscience at McLean Hospital/Harvard Medical School
Two post-doctoral positions are available within the Laboratory for Affective and Translational Neuroscience at McLean Hospital/Harvard Medical School, directed by Diego A. Pizzagalli, Ph.D.
The laboratory is part of the Center for Depression, Anxiety and Stress Research (CDASR), a vibrant research center with over 40 scientists/staff/students that embraces a multi-disciplinary approach to improve our understanding of the psychological, environmental, and neurobiological factors associated with depression, anxiety and related disorders across the lifespan (http://cdasr.mclean.harvard.edu/).
Currently ongoing studies in Dr. Pizzagalli's laboratory focus on reward processing, stress responsivity, and executive functioning in a range of populations including individuals with current or past major depression, as well as at-risk samples (e.g., offspring of parents with MDD or individuals exposed to early life stress). These studies employ a variety of approaches, including high-density EEG, fMRI, PET, MRS, computational modeling, and assays of hormonal/inflammatory markers. Opportunities will be available to pursue independent research and interdisciplinary collaborations across Harvard Medical School. Depending on research focus, candidates will have access to three research-dedicated human MRI scanners (3 T, 4 T) and one animal MRI scanner (9.4 T), as well as two high-density EEG systems.
Qualifications: For the first position, a strong background in EEG/ERP techniques is required. For the second position, a strong background in functional/structural MRI techniques is required. For both positions, clinical training, computational modeling expertise (e.g., machine learning) and/or experience with a second imaging modality are a plus.
To apply, send a CV, a cover letter describing research interests, as well as names and email addresses of three references to Diego A. Pizzagalli (dap@mclean.harvard.edu). Review of applications will begin immediately (expected start date: Summer 2020, although an earlier start will be possible).
McLean Hospital, which is an affiliate of Harvard Medical School, is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
