We are seeking two postdoctoral fellows to join the Braga Lab in the Department of
Neurology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. The fellows will work
under the mentorship of Rodrigo M. Braga, PhD, and conduct experiments using
precision/high-resolution human neuroimaging approaches to research the role of
distributed brain networks in cognition and disease. Fellows will be expected to assist
with ongoing clinical research studies and will receive training in clinical research
methodologies including functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and intracranial
electroencephalography (iEEG). They will also have opportunities to participate or lead in
data analysis, presentations at national meetings, and writing of publications.
Must have PhD (or equivalent doctoral degree) in neuroscience, psychology, computer
science, MR physics or a related field from an accredited institution or have received the
degree(s) by the start of training. Experience with programming and neuroimaging
(particularly individual-level and/or high-field fMRI) and/or intracranial
electrophysiology are desirable. Postdoctoral applicants must have received their degree
no more than five (5) years ago.
Applicants must be a U.S. citizen or be eligible to work in the United States (after
obtaining appropriate visa).
Interested candidates should email a cover letter briefly describing research interests,
curriculum vitae and names and contact information for three (3) references to Dr. Rodrigo
