Position: Postdoctoral Position in Neuroimaging Research on Brain Aging and Alzheimer’s disease

Area: Brain Aging and Alzheimer’s disease

Department: Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior

Institution: Brown University

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to lead an NIH-funded project in the Laboratory for Cognitive and Translational Neuroscience (Director: Dr. Hwamee Oh) at Brown University. The project is to use amyloid and tau PET and structural MRI/DTI to study the impact of Alzheimer’s disease pathologies on structural and functional networks among cognitively normal older adults and patients with cognitive impairment.

Applicants with a Ph.D. degree in cognitive neuroscience, computational neuroscience, biomedical engineering, or a relevant field are encouraged to apply. Prior experience with human neuroimaging in PET and/or structural MRI, and familiarity with programming in relevant languages (e.g., Python, MATLAB) are required. Applicants with experience with amyloid and tau PET or diffusion weighted imaging are especially encouraged to apply. The successful candidate is expected to demonstrate communication skills, motivation and interest in the area of neuroscience of cognitive and brain aging and Alzheimer’s disease, and the ability to independently develop research questions and work in collaboration with other team members.

A preferred start date is Summer 2024, although it can be flexible. The position is primarily affiliated with the Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at Brown University.

Interested applicants should email a brief description of research background and career goals, and CV with a list of 3 references to Dr. Hwamee Oh at hwamee_oh@brown.edu.
