<p class="MsoNormal">A postdoc position is available immediately in the Neuroimaging and Applied Computational Anatomy Lab, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. Our laboratory aims to develop
multidimensional and multimodal neuroimaging biomarkers using the tools of computational anatomy. Working with collaborators from engineering, mathematics, psychology and clinical specialties, our research is focused on the following major areas: automated
pipelines for mapping of brain structures using MRI, development of complex neuroimaging biomarkers, clinical applications in dementia, psychosis, mood disorders and genetics, neuroinformatics, and neuroimaging of animal models.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This position is initially limited to two years with the possibility of extension. It will be partially funded by a new 5-year NIH study (PI Greg Miller, PhD) of the relationship between socioeconomic status and maturation patterns in
the corticolimbic and corticostriatal circuitries of school-age youths. The successful applicant will work primarily on T1, DTI and resting-state fMRI analysis in this and various other clinical populations with a particularly emphasis on multimodal approaches.
The position will be integrated closely with the existing collaborative environment. Additionally, supervision of graduate and medical students will be required.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Candidates should hold a Ph.D. in neuroscience, psychology, engineering or related fields. A strong publication record and background on structural neuroimaging research should be demonstrated. Experience with fMRI analysis is highly desirable.
Applicants should have strong analytical skills and experience with existing tools for large-scale analysis of neuroimaging data (i.e., FreeSurfer, 3D Slicer, SPM, FSL, AFNI, etc.). Proficiency in relevant programming languages (e.g. MATLAB, Python) and statistical
analysis (R, SAS, SPSS) is required. Working experience in epidemiological research or large-scale clinical studies is highly desirable. The successful candidate must be capable of working independently and taking initiatives. The candidate is expected to
be a team-player with excellent communication and writing skills. <o:p></o:p></p>
