who have interests that consolidate the collaborative links between members
of the new Wolfson Institute, the CBCD, and the new MRI facility. We are
particularly interested in candidates whose research centres on
developmental functional or structural MRI. However, other candidates in
developmental and cognitive neuroscience that help to establish and
reinforce collaborative bridges within the grouping will also be considered.
