External Email - Use Caution Post-Doctoral position: Functional Neuroimaging in Human Neurocognitive Aging
A full-time position is available for an outstanding, highly motivated post-doctoral fellow in the laboratory of Arnold Bakker, Ph.D. in the Division of Psychiatric Neuroimaging at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. The laboratory focuses on the use of high-resolution functional and structural neuroimaging methods to investigate the neural basis of learning and memory in both young and older adults and in individuals with memory complaints, neurodegenerative or psychiatric conditions. Our studies focus primarily on the role of the medial temporal lobe and particularly the hippocampus in memory function, age- and disease-related memory impairment and neuropsychiatric conditions. The Division of Psychiatric Neuroimaging is part of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and is affiliated with the Johns Hopkins Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (JHADRC), the Division of Geriatric Psychiatry and Neuropsychiatry, the Kirby Center for Brain Imaging, and the Center for Imaging Science (CIS). These affiliations and the Johns Hopkins community in general provide a rich and unique environment for collaboration and education for candidates interested in learning and memory in aging and disease, and neuropsychiatry. The fellow will have responsibility for specific projects, particularly involving image processing and analysis, and lead the preparation of manuscripts for publication and presentation of results at scientific meetings. The successful candidate will have strong academic training in cognitive or computational neuroscience and will have significant experience with functional MRI. A Ph.D. or M.D/Ph.D. in Neuroscience, Cognitive Science or Psychology or a relevant discipline is required. The successful candidate will have excellent writing and communication skills with evidence of successful manuscript productivity as well as the ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative interdisciplinary team. Preference will be given to candidates with experience in clinical research. Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled. Applicants should send their Curriculum Vitae, a statement of academic interests and the names and addresses of three professional references to: Dr. Arnold Bakker (abak...@jhu.edu<mailto:abak...@jhu.edu>). The Johns Hopkins University is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer committed to recruiting, supporting, and fostering a diverse community of outstanding faculty, staff, and students. All applicants who share this goal are encouraged to apply.
