Written by Administrator
Saturday, 26 May 2007
POSTDOCTORAL POSITION IN VISUAL NEUROSCIENCE, MACKNIK LAB
The Barrow Neurological Institute
A postdoctoral position in visual neuroscience is available immediately at The Barrow Neurological Institute, in the laboratory of Stephen Macknik.
Research in the laboratory addresses the neuronal mechanisms of visual perception and awareness, using a combination of visual psychophysics, neurophysiology, and functional brain imaging methods, such as fMRI and intrinsic signal imaging and in vivo two-photon microscopy.
Current and planned projects include investigations of brightness and visual masking.
The ideal candidate will have a strong background in any (or all) of these techniques: functional imaging, electrophysiological recording, psychophysics, optical imaging (intrinsic signal and/or two-photon microscopy), and neuronal modeling, as evidenced by first-author publications. Programming experience with Matlab or C is very desirable. Salary will be commensurate with level of experience. A generous benefits package is offered in addition, including medical, dental, vision, and retirement (with a value equal to 24.3% of the salary).
The Barrow Neurological Institute is a top-ten rated clinical neuroscience institute (US News and World Report), and is situated in central Phoenix,
the fastest growing and most desirable major metropolitan area in the US.
Please send CV, two letters of reference, and representative publications to:
