Investigator Scientist MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit – Cambridge
Neuroimaging Methods Post to study Ageing
Applications are invited for a post-doctoral position to join the Cambridge Centre for Ageing and Neuroscience (CamCAN). This centre brings together a large group of researchers across the University of Cambridge and at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit (MRC-CBU) who aim to relate brain changes to cognitive changes over the adult lifespan. The appointee will work with a unique population-representative sample of 700 adults from 18-88 years of age, on whom we have already collected an extensive range of cognitive and brain measures (including multiple structural MRI contrasts, plus resting-state and task-based functional data from both fMRI and MEG). This fixed-term post will be available from October 2013 until the end of September 2015.
You should have, or be in the final stages of obtaining, a PhD in cognitive neuroscience, neuroimaging methods or a related field, with experience of analysis of neuroimaging data, such as MRI, fMRI andMEG/EEG. You should have excellent programming and general IT skills, including expertise in Matlab and experience in Linux/Unix. Experience with some of the major neuroimaging software (eg SPM/FSL/FieldTrip) would be desirable, as would experience developing, managing, or maintaining large datasets. You must be careful, efficient, able to communicate effectively, and enjoy working as part of a diverse and energetic interdisciplinary team.
The starting salary will be in the range of £26,282 – £29,885 per annum, supported by a flexible pay and reward policy, 30 days annual leave entitlement, and an optional MRC final salary Pension Scheme. On site car and cycle parking is available.
