The Laboratory of Functional Neuroscience at the Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Cell Biology, University Pablo de Olavide, Seville (Spain), invites applications for one PhD student position to investigate in neuroimaging markers (structural and functional) of healthy and pathological aging. The position is renewed on a yearly basis, and the salary is according to spanish standard. Candidates are encouraged to apply as soon as possible. Evaluations will start immediately.
Research interests are mainly focused on the development of novel analysis approaches to DTI and resting state fMRI, and the translation of this knowledge to the study of healthy cerebral aging and early stages of Alzheimer's disease. Candidates will take a leading role in data analysis and development of novel analysis approaches to DTI and resting state fMRI, and this input will be integrated with FDG-PET and cortical neurophysiology (resting state and cognitive tasks).
Applicants should have expertise in DTI-fMRI analysis techniques, computer programming and/or statistical methods. Knowledge of Matlab is strongly preferred. Interest in clinical neuroscience and cognitive function would be also appreciated.
To apply please email a detailed CV to Dr. Jose L. Cantero, e-mail: jlcanlor@upo.es
Letters of recommendations will be required during the selection process.
Best regards,
Jose L. Cantero
