On Behalf of Dr. Manoach:


Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging and the  Psychiatric Neuroimaging Division of the Psychiatry Department at Massachusetts  General Hospital, Charlestown, MA and Harvard Medical School  Position Description: Clinical/Cognitive Neuroscience Research  Project: Multimodal neuroimaging studies of sleep and memory  PI: Dara S. Manoach, Ph.D.              The position will involve investigating the role of sleep in memory consolidation,  how these processes go awry in schizophrenia and autism, and the effects of  pharmacological and other interventions.  Our work has linked cognitive deficits to  specific heritable mechanisms (sleep spindles and other sleep oscillations) and we  are seeking effective interventions.  In collaboration with Dr. Robert Stickgold's  lab at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, we are extending and expanding this  basic and clinical research program using state-of-the art tools including high  density EEG, MEG, DTI, functional connectivity MRI, fMRI, and behavioral studies.   We are seeking someone to participate in these foundation and NIMH-funded  investigations who is familiar with cognitive neuroscience, neuroimaging methodology  including MEG and/or EEG and data analysis, and is interested in developing research  questions and optimizing analysis streams tailored to the study aims and  populations.  New approaches and ideas are encouraged, as are independent projects  that dovetail with current studies.  The position requires working closely with the  PI, as well as with Dr. Stickgold, other Martinos Center investigators, particularly  Dr. Matti Hamalainen, Director of the MEG Core Lab, and lab mates to design studies,  acquire data, and develop, explore, improve and apply data analytic techniques.  Training in clinical research and in the acquisition, analysis, and interpretation  of neuroimaging data will be provided.              Requirements: PhD (or MD) in cognitive neuroscience, psychology or a related  discipline and a strong research background are required. The ideal candidate will  have a background in MEG and/or EEG methodology; research experience with clinical  populations; experience in task design and analysis for cognitive experiments;  fluency with statistical analysis packages. A background in computational  neuroscience and/or signal processing (e.g., in Matlab) are beneficial PS. Here they  are, distribute however you see fit.              Position available immediately.  Interested applicants should email: (a) CV, (b)  statement of post-doctoral and career goals, (c) writing sample (e.g., a published  manuscript), and (d) letters and/or contact information for three references to Dara  Manoach <Dara.Manoach@mgh.harvard.edu<mailto:Dara.Manoach@mgh.harvard.edu>>.   Stipend levels are in line with experience and NIH.  A two-year commitment is  required.

We are seeking someone to participate in these foundation and NIMH-funded  investigations who is familiar with MEG/EEG methodology and data analysis,  comfortable with methodological innovation, and is interested in optimizing and  developing analysis streams tailored to the study aims and populations.  New  approaches and ideas are encouraged, as are independent projects that dovetail with  current studies.  The position requires working closely with the PI, as well as with  Dr. Stickgold, other Martinos Center investigators, particularly Dr. Matti  Hamalainen, Director of the MEG Core Lab, and lab mates to design studies, acquire  data, and develop, explore, improve and apply data analytic techniques. Training in  clinical research and in the acquisition, analysis, and interpretation of  neuroimaging data will be provided.  This is an excellent opportunity for scientists  with a strong interest in clinical multimodal neuroimaging research.      Requirements: PhD in neuroscience, engineering or a related field and a strong  research background are required. Ideal candidates would have extensive experience  in data analysis and/or an engineering background, be proficient in Matlab/Python  and be interested in methods development. The following are beneficial: experience  with MEG/EEG data analysis/methodology; background in cognitive neuroscience,  experimental psychology and sleep; interest in clinical applications.      Position available immediately.  Interested applicants should email: (a) CV, (b)  statement of post-doctoral and career goals, (c) writing sample (e.g., a published  manuscript), and (d) letters and/or contact information for three references to Dara  Manoach <Dara.Manoach@mgh.harvard.edu<mailto:Dara.Manoach@mgh.harvard.edu>>.
