[Freesurfer] VBM by freesurfer

Hello,
I am trying to run a VBM analysis by using the white matter and the grey
matter masks from Freesurfer, because, often, other tools are not able to
calculate a correct white matter and grey matter masks.
When I have these masks, I have to apply them to my original T1 images.
However, the original T1 is in different space. I can resample the ROIs (WM
and GM) in order to apply them to my original T1, but my question is:
Can I use the orig.mgz from Freesurfer as my T1 for VBM, or does it have
different intensity from my real T1 acquisition?

Thanks,
Maurizio

[Freesurfer] Postdoctoral Fellowship in advanced multi-parametric imaging in Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and healthy aging

2020-11-10 Thread Maurizio Bergamino

My Lab, at Barrow Neurological Institute (Phoenix, AZ), is looking for a
Postdoc.
For more information email to:
Ashley M. Stokes, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor // Division of Neuro-Imaging Research Barrow
Neurological Institute
*ashley.sto...@barrowneuro.org*
and/or
Ryan R. Walsh, M.D., Ph.D., FAAN
Associate Professor // Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center Department of
Neurology // Barrow Neurological Institute
*ryan.wa...@barrowneuro.org*


A postdoctoral fellowship position (fully funded for up to three years) is
available at Barrow Neurological Institute (BNI) working with Ashley
Stokes, PhD, and Ryan R. Walsh, MD, PhD, as part of a rapidly growing
collaborative research effort between the Division of Neuro-Imaging
Research, Department of Neurology, and Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center. The
position will primarily focus on the development, application, and analysis
of advanced MRI methods in the context of both Parkinson’s disease and
Alzheimer’s disease, as well as dementia with Lewy bodies and healthy
cognitive aging, expanding upon recent novel approaches developed by this
multi-modal lab. These methods include advanced functional, diffusion,
perfusion, and structural imaging methods, with an emphasis on novel
mathematical/signal processing approaches to provide a more comprehensive
understanding of neurodegenerative diseases and normal brain aging across
structural, functional, and perfusion signatures, including their mutual
interdependence.

BNI is the world’s largest dedicated neurological disease treatment and
research institution, and the Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center at BNI is a
recognized leader in the field. Outstanding institutional resources,
including 1.5T and 3T Philips clinical MRI, a research-dedicated Philips 3T
MRI, a 7T preclinical Bruker MRI, microCT, microPET, and optical imaging
scanners are available at BNI. The Division of Neuro-Imaging Research has a
strong history of imaging excellence and is currently expanding. BNI is a
major hub for neuroscience research, including both basic and translational
neuroscience, with a wide range of internationally-recognized neurology
subspecialties. Barrow Neurological Foundation provides robust
philanthropic support exceeding $18M per annum, 100% of which benefits
patient care, research and education at BNI.

Applicants should have a PhD in physics, engineering, mathematics, computer
science, or a related discipline. Competitive candidates will have
expertise in signal processing and/or functional MRI and be interested in
developing novel approaches to analysis of MRI-based signals. This position
is available immediately and offers competitive compensation and benefits.

Phoenix is the 5th largest metropolitan in the United States and the 2nd
fastest growing city. Phoenix is a beautiful place to live and work,
boasting more days of sunshine and a lower cost of living than most
comparable cities. A rich culture, including theatre, concerts, museums,
sports, and great food, are easily found in Phoenix. With a moderate
climate most of the year, many Phoenicians enjoy an active lifestyle of
hiking, cycling, rock climbing, swimming, and golf.

Interested applicants should send a current CV, including the names of
three references, to both:
