The project employs both = EEG-based and fMRI-based methods to elucidate the cognitive pathways drivin= g chemo-related cognitive dysfunction in children ages 5 - 12 years. The po= sition is available starting May-June 2021; candidates are expected to be a= ble to commit to join for the duration of the project through March 2025. Successful candidates for the position will have a PhD in physics, biomedic= al engineering, neuroscience or a related discipline, a strong background i= n either cognitive neuroscience or MRI physics, expertise in image and EEG = data processing, as well as data and statistical analysis. Programming expe= rience should include the commonly used packages for image and EEG processi= ng, such as C++, Matlab, and FSL. The candidate should have significant exp= erience in event-related potential (ERP) data collection and analysis metho= ds and/or imaging in a clinical setting and a strong background in the deve= lopment and/or application of novel methods for human brain imaging, such a= s DTI / fMRI / structural MRI data analyses. Candidates with experience onl= y in EEG-based or fMRI-based methods will be considered if they can demonst= rate through experience or letters of reference that they are able to quick= ly and independently master new techniques and methods of analysis. The can= didate will allocate equal amounts of time to the EEG and MRI labs. Prior e= xperience with auditory-based ERP/fMRI is not necessary, but candidates wit= h such experience will be given preference. A strong work ethic, excellent = organizational and communication skills, and ability to work independently = is expected. Previous experience working with child populations is a plus. = The candidate will be expected to be involved in all aspects of the project= , including EEG, image and data analysis, statistical analysis, as well as = interfacing with the clinical team. Competitive salary and benefits will be= offered based on qualifications. The Gruss MRRC is located on the main campus of the Albert Einstein College= of Medicine in Bronx, NY. The Center has a multinuclear 3.0 Tesla Whole Bo= dy Philips Elition human system and a 9.4 T Direct Drive Varian animal syst= em. Image processing facilities including a computing cluster, multiple Lin= ux workstations and PCs with imaging and general software installed. Please= visit our website for more details (http://www.einstein.yu.edu/centers/gru= ss-magnetic-resonance-research/). The Albert Einstein College of Medicine is a leading academic institution, = with over $170M in NIH funding. The candidate will have access to state-of-= the-art brain imaging (MRI, EEG) and computing facilities. Einstein is one = of the nation's premier institutions for medical education, basic research,= and clinical investigation. It is home to some 2,000 faculty members, 750 = M.D. students, 350 Ph.D. students attending the Sue Golding Graduate Divisi= on - including 125 in the combined M.D./Ph.D. program - and 325 postdoctora= l investigators training at our Belfer Institute for Advanced Biomedical St= udies. More than 7,000 Einstein alumni are among the nation's foremost clin= icians, biomedical scientists, and medical educators. Interested candidates should send their CV, a brief statement of their rese= arch interests and career goals, and the names and phone numbers of three r= eferences to Mark Wagshul (mark.wagshul@xxxxxxxx<mailto:mark.wagshul= @xxxxxxxx>) or Elyse S. Sussman (elyse.sussman@xxxxxxxx<mailt= o:elyse.sussman@xxxxxxxx>). Review of applications will begin immedi= ately and continue until the position is filled. The Albert Einstein College of Medicine is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative= Action Employer.
