POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP: NEUROIMAGING OF HUMAN AUDITORY ATTENTION

["David L. Woods" <dlwoods@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP:  NEUROIMAGING OF HUMAN AUDITORY
ATTENTION
 
A postdoctoral fellowship is available to map human auditory cortical
fields using combined structural and functional MRI techniques. Auditory
cortical field activations are imaged in a variety of selective-attention
paradigms that vary attentional demands and stimulus features. 
Activations are projected onto the cortical surface using locally
normalized anatomical maps derived from automated measures of cortical
curvature and thickness. Tools used include SPM, Freesurfer,
Presentation, and in-house MATLAB and statistical analysis programs. A
further description of the laboratory and research projects is available
at www.ebire.org/hcnlab.
 
SALARY: $40,000-$55,000 depending on experience. Position duration: 2
yrs.  
 
QUALIFICATIONS.  PhD or MD.    Candidates should have
a strong publication record, with a focus on auditory perception,
physiology and/or anatomy. Familiarity with Windows and Linux operating
systems and some programming experience is a plus.  

APPLICATION PROCEDURE: Interested candidates should email a letter of
intent, C.V., representative publications, and the names of three
references to: Professor David L. Woods, Dept. of Neurology, UC Davis.
Email: dlwoods@ucdavis.edu.
