Subject: [AUDITORY] PhD & Postdoc positions =?Windows-1252?Q?=96_?=computational modeling and real-time fMRI neurofeedback of language, bilingualism and dyslexia From: Narly Golestani <Narly.Golestani@xxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2019 13:21:52 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--_000_2bb639c17c5b46ae804dcf1924bc9f61unigech_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable PhD and Postdoc positions are available at the Brain and Language Lab (www.= brainandlanguagelab.org<http://www.brainandlanguagelab.org>) at the Univers= ity of Geneva. The PhD position is for 3-4 years, and the postdoc position = is for up to 4 years, and salary will be commensurate with experience. Sev= eral projects will be done in collaborations with Maastricht University and= with the University of Vienna. Applicants should have a strong interest in human brain imaging, and in lan= guage function and dysfunction, and should have one of (or a combination of= ) the following profiles: 1. Candidates with a degree in Biomedical Engineering, Computational Neuros= cience, or a related field, and with solid experience in computational mode= lling (i.e. encoding / decoding) of fMRI data, machine learning, statistics= and programming. Projects will include extensions of our recent work on th= e neural encoding of acoustic information in speech sounds (https://www.ncb= i.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31285622) to higher levels of language processing. 2. Candidates with a degree in Cognitive Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineeri= ng and/or Psychology, with solid experience in the acquisition and analysis= of brain functional (and structural) imaging data. Projects will include r= eal-time fMRI neurofeedback training studies, focusing on different levels/= aspects of language learning. Candidates for either position (depending on experience) will also have the= opportunity to become involved in the analysis of data from a 7T myelin ma= pping (R1) study. The positions are available immediately, and applications will be considere= d until the position is filled. Applicants should send me their CV, a state= ment of research interests, and the names and contact information for 2-3 r= eferences, at Narly.Golestani@xxxxxxxx<mailto:Narly.Golestani@xxxxxxxx>. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= ----------- Prof. Narly Golestani Brain and Language Lab Department of Psychology Campus Biotech 9 Chemin des Mines, 1202 Gen=E8ve +41 22 379 53 52 <https://outlook.unige.ch/owa/redir.aspx?SURL=3D5WTo-p-J-W9FrDydU-0WU4PdMyt= UGs6FDVYEZcx1DdqyagSve7_SCGgAdAB0AHAAOgAvAC8AdwB3AHcALgBiAHIAYQBpAG4AYQBuAG= QAbABhAG4AZwB1AGEAZwBlAGwAYQBiAC4AbwByAGcALwA.&URL=3Dhttp%3a%2f%2fwww.brain= andlanguagelab.org%2f>http://www.brainandlanguagelab.org https://twitter.com/brain_lang_lab ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= ----------- <https://outlook.unige.ch/owa/redir.aspx?SURL=3D5WTo-p-J-W9FrDydU-0WU4PdMyt= UGs6FDVYEZcx1DdqyagSve7_SCGgAdAB0AHAAOgAvAC8AdwB3AHcALgBiAHIAYQBpAG4AYQBuAG= QAbABhAG4AZwB1AGEAZwBlAGwAYQBiAC4AbwByAGcALwA.&URL=3Dhttp%3a%2f%2fwww.brain= andlanguagelab.org%2f> --_000_2bb639c17c5b46ae804dcf1924bc9f61unigech_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html> <head> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3DWindows-1= 252"> <style type=3D"text/css" style=3D"display:none;"><!-- P {margin-top:0;margi= n-bottom:0;} --></style> </head> <body dir=3D"ltr"> <div id=3D"divtagdefaultwrapper" style=3D"font-size:12pt;color:#000000;font= -family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;" dir=3D"ltr"> <p><b><span style=3D"font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman&qu= ot;, serif, serif, "EmojiFont";" lang=3D"EN-US"></span></b><br> </p> <div style=3D"color:rgb(0,0,0)"> <div> <div id=3D"x_divtagdefaultwrapper" dir=3D"ltr" style=3D"font-size: 12pt; co= lor: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif, serif, &quo= t;EmojiFont";"> <div style=3D"color:rgb(0,0,0)"> <div> <div id=3D"x_divtagdefaultwrapper" dir=3D"ltr" style=3D"font-size: 12pt; co= lor: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif, serif, &quo= t;EmojiFont";"> <div> <p class=3D"x_MsoNormal" style=3D""><span lang=3D"EN-US">PhD and Postdoc po= sitions are available at the Brain and Language Lab </span><span style=3D"" lang=3D"EN-GB">(<a href=3D"http://www.brainandlangu= agelab.org" target=3D"_blank" rel=3D"noopener noreferrer" id=3D"LPlnk449845= " previewremoved=3D"true">www.brainandlanguagelab.org</a>) </span><span lang=3D"EN-US">at the University of Geneva. </span><span style= =3D"" lang=3D"EN-GB">The PhD position is for 3-4 years, and the postdoc pos= ition is for up to 4 years,</span><span lang=3D"EN-GB"> </span><span style=3D"" lang=3D"EN-GB">and salary will be commensurate with= experience.<span style=3D""> </span>Several projects will be done in collaborations with Maastricht Univ= ersity and with the University of Vienna.<span style=3D""> <br> </span></span></p> <p class=3D"x_MsoNormal" style=3D""><span style=3D"" lang=3D"EN-GB"><span s= tyle=3D""><br> </span></span></p> <p class=3D"x_MsoNormal" style=3D""><span style=3D"" lang=3D"EN-GB">Applica= nts should have a strong interest in human brain imaging, and in language f= unction and dysfunction, and should have one of (or a combination of) the f= ollowing profiles: <br> </span></p> <p class=3D"x_MsoNormal" style=3D""><span style=3D"" lang=3D"EN-GB"><br> </span></p> <p class=3D"x_MsoNormal" style=3D""><span style=3D"" lang=3D"EN-GB">1.
