*Postdoctoral Positions in Cognitive Neuroscience of Visual Memory, Aging, and Alzheimer’s disease*
Category: Postdoctoral Position Area: Cognitive and Translational Neuroscience
Department: Depts. of Psychiatry and Human Behavior and Cognitive, Linguistic, and Psychological Sciences Institution: Brown University
We are seeking two highly motivated postdoctoral researchers to lead NIH-funded projects in the Laboratory for Cognitive and Translational Neuroscience directed by Dr. Hwamee Oh at Brown University. One position is to use fMRI and PET to study visual memory networks in healthy young, cognitively normal older adults, and older adults who are considered as preclinical Alzheimer's disease. The other position is to understand the individualized brain networks that are affected by Alzheimer’s disease pathology among non-demented older adults.
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, a strong background in cognitive neuroscience and experimental design, and/or familiarity with programming in relevant languages (e.g., Python, MATLAB) are required. The successful candidate is expected to demonstrate communication skills, motivation and interest in the area of cognitive and brain aging, Alzheimer’s disease, and neuroimaging, and the ability to independently develop research questions and work in collaboration with other team members.
The expected start date is fall 2022 or negotiable.
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.
