Research Assistantship and PhD in ECE with a focus on
EEG-based Noninvasive Brain Computer Interface Design
at Northeastern University, Boston, MA, USA


** Please forward to highly qualified students who may be interested **

Individuals with excellent background and credentials who are interested in pursuing a PhD in statistical signal processing and machine learning towards the design of a noninvasive brain computer interface (BCI) in a
5-year translational research project funded by NIH are invited to apply
for a graduate research assistant position under the supervision of Deniz Erdogmus in the Department of ECE at Northeastern University (NU).

Qualifications required for this position include: a solid understanding
of statistical modeling and inference, signal processing, machine learning, and pattern recognition; a strong background in relevant fields such as linear algebra, optimization, probability theory; a strong background in Matlab and C++, as well as experience with real-time data acquisition and signal processing. Candidates with prior research experience, preferrably in a relevant topic, evidenced by an MS thesis and publications in high quality international journals and conferences will be given higher consideration.

This project is in collaboration with researchers at the Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, OR. Funding for this RA position is
available for up to 5 years starting immediately and continued funding
will depend on satisfactory performance of the RA and the availability of
continued funding by NIH. The stipend is competitive.

Northeastern University is located in Boston, MA and is in close proximity
to many outstanding academic and cultural activities, and other major cities and outdoor activities in New England are easily accessible. To learn more, please visit:

        ECE:    http://www.ece.neu.edu/
        NU:     http://www.neu.edu/

To apply, please send the following materials to Deniz Erdogmus by email in a single(!) pdf at 'erdog...@ece.neu.edu':
        Academic CV
        Statement of purpose
        Transcript showing all courses and grades and GPA
        Descriptions of relevant graduate courses
        Copies of papers, reports...

The starting date of this appointment can be as soon as possible (provided all necessary paperwork is completed) but September 2009 when the Fall semester starts at NU is most likely. We will start considering applications after March 1st, 2009 until the position is filled.
