--000000000000369eb3059029e01d Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable The Cogan Lab (PI: Gregory Cogan) at Duke University is seeking a research assistant/lab manager to start in the Fall of 2019. Research in the lab focuses on understanding the neural computations that underlie speech, language, and cognition. We use a combination of invasive recordings in adult and pediatric epilepsy patients: stereo-electroencephalography - SEEG, and electrocorticography =E2=80=93 EC= oG, and non-invasive recordings in healthy participants: electroencephalography =E2= =80=93 EEG. We also collaborate closely with the Viventi Lab ( viventi.pratt.duke.edu - Department of Biomedical Engineering) to develop high density/channel count micro-electroencephalography (=C2=B5ECoG - < 2 m= m spacing, up to 1024 channels) to record from functional neurosurgery patients (e.g. epilepsy, movement disorders, tumor patients) to better understand the micro-scale of human cognition. See the lab website for more information: http://www.coganlab.org Responsibilities include subject recruitment, data collection, data management, data analysis, helping to write papers for publication, and general administrivia. The ideal candidate will be enthusiastic about a career in science/medicine/engineering, self-motivated, independent, creative, and have interest in speech/language, and/or cognitive/systems neuroscience. They will also have great interpersonal skills and a strong willingness to learn. Candidates must have an undergraduate degree in a related field (e.g. Neuroscience, Psychology, Engineering, Biology, etc.), and experience with programming in Matlab and/or Python. Duke University is an excellent and highly interdisciplinary place for research. Collaborators span multiple departments/institutes including the Duke Institute for Brain Sciences, the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, Psychology and Neuroscience, Neurology, and Biomedical Engineering. The position is open until filled. Interested applicants can send a CV, a brief statement of interest, as well as contact information for two references to: gregory.cogan@xxxxxxxx --000000000000369eb3059029e01d Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;li= ne-height:normal;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;backg= round-size:initial;background-repeat:initial;background-origin:initial;back= ground-clip:initial;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span st= yle=3D"font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)">The Cogan Lab (PI: Gregory Cogan) at Duke University is seeking a research assistant/lab manag= er to start in the Fall of 2019.</span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-size:initia= l;background-repeat:initial;background-origin:initial;background-clip:initi= al;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style=3D"font-famil= y:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)">=C2=A0</span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-size:initia= l;background-repeat:initial;background-origin:initial;background-clip:initi= al;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style=3D"font-famil= y:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)">Research in the lab focuses on understanding the neural computations that underlie speech, language, an= d cognition.
