Subject: [AUDITORY] Postdoctoral Fellow in Cochlear Implants and Neuroimaging From: "Patrick Wong (LIN)" <p.wong@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 16 Jan 2022 11:04:26 +0000--_000_OSZP286MB2410ED46334A816942175C57D7569OSZP286MB2410JPNP_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear Colleagues: Please help disseminate this information. Patrick Postdoctoral Fellow in Cochlear Implants and Neuroimaging Northwestern University McGaw Medical Center is hiring a postdoctoral fello= w to study neural predictors of cochlear implant outcomes. The position is= based in the Section of Otology & Neurotology within the Division of Otola= ryngology at Lurie Children=92s Hospital of Chicago. The research is part = of an ongoing multicenter project to use pre-surgical magnetic resonance im= aging to predict post-cochlear implant language outcomes in children funded= by the NIH. The long-term goal of this research is to optimize language af= ter implantation by providing the most effective language learning therapy = informed by imaging data. This research, led by PI Nancy Young, MD at Lurie= Children=92s, involves an international collaboration with Multi-PI Patric= k Wong, PhD and Northwestern=92s Department of Communication Sciences and D= isorders. English- and Spanish-learning children will be enrolled in the s= tudy. This is a multi-site, international study with plenty of opportuniti= es to engage in interdisciplinary research with the support of an extensive= clinical infrastructure. An auxiliary project will be to use functional n= ear-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRs) to study neural changes post-implantation= . Individuals with a background in hearing, speech, language and/or cognitive= science are encouraged to apply. Clinical experience in audiology is an a= sset but not required. Research experience with children is desirable. A r= esearch doctorate (e.g., PhD) is required at the time of appointment. The = anticipated start date is summer or fall 2022 (earlier is possible). The = anticipated end date of the project is in 2027. Candidates from underrepre= sented groups are especially encouraged to apply. To express interest, ple= ase email Dr. Patrick Wong (p.wong@xxxxxxxx<mailto:p.wong@xxxxxxxx>) = with CV. Applications are reviewed until the position is filled. ---------------------------- Patrick C. M.
