This centre brings together a large group of researchers across the University of Cambridge and at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit (MRC-CBSU) who aim to relate brain changes to cognitive changes over the adult lifespan (covering ages 18-88). The appointee will work with a unique population-representative sample of 700 adults on whom we have collected extensive cognitive and neuroimaging measures from fMRI and MEG. The role of the post holder will be to conduct multivariate and network analyses of the Cam-CAN 700 dataset to elucidate brain systems changes associated with normal ageing and its associated changes in cognitive function. The appointee will be a physical scientist with a strong interest in neuroscience of cognitive neuroscientist with a strong background in imaging and imaging statistics, and cognitive and/or physiological ageing. Candidates should have, or be in the final stages of obtaining, a PhD in physics, cognitive neuroscience, neuroimaging methods, applied statistics or cognitive ageing. Knowledge of and experience in advanced imaging analyses, particularly brain connectivity and network analysis is essential, and it would be highly desirable to have some prior experience of MEG/EEG and/or fMRI techniques. Excellent statistical, computer programming (MATLAB and/or Python) and neuroimaging analysis (SPM, Fieldtrip) skills are essential. Candidates should be careful, efficient, be able to communicate effectively, and enjoy working as part of a diverse and energetic interdisciplinary team. Candidates should also be willing to run fMRI and MEG sessions which will require some flexible working to accommodate evening (up to three per week) and Saturday (up to two per month) sessions. The applicant will be based in the Centre for Speech and Language in the Department of Psychology but will work closely with colleagues in the Brain Mapping Unit in the Department of Psychiatry. The post will be appointed at the appropriate point on the University of Cambridge's research associate salary scale, depending on the seniority of the successful candidate.
