External Email - Use Caution

I’m writing with information on a rare opening for a Neurotechnology Program Director to manage projects for the BRAIN Initiative. This is a dream job for anyone who wants to shape the development of cutting edge methods to understand the brain.

The Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies® Initiative (BRAIN Initiative), along with the NINDS Division of Neuroscience, is seeking exceptional candidates for the position of Neurotechnology Program Director (Health Scientist Administrator -13/14 or 15).

This is a unique opportunity to advance the Neurotechnology portfolio for the BRAIN Initiative, a historic multi-billion-dollar effort to transform neuroscience by developing the technologies of the future. It offers collaborations with highly motivated, skilled, and scientifically curious colleagues from 10 NIH Institutes and Centers and from partner agencies such as NSF and DARPA. It requires extensive engagement and outreach to the research community to assess trends, communicate priorities, and identify new opportunities. Responsibilities include developing new programs, making funding recommendations, and direct managerial oversight of grants and research cooperative agreements.

The position will be responsible for overseeing a portfolio of grants and cooperative agreements to support these scientific areas: neural interface technologies that record, modulate, or stimulate neural activity; novel materials and neural interface devices; and biotechnologies applied to the nervous system (including development of hardware, software, and computational techniques). Candidates should possess a doctoral degree and post-doctoral training, with expertise in research towards understanding and applying neural engineering concepts and technologies. We encourage applications from candidates who enjoy working collaboratively and bring a diverse perspective to neural engineering research.

Alert: For BRAIN FOAs that require a Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives (PEDP), applications without this new component will be withdrawn prior to review. Evaluation of the PEDP will be made during peer review as part of the scorable criteria and will be used to inform funding decisions.
