and computational modeling. There is opportunity for collaborating with
clinical researchers, especially in the domains of epilepsy and dementia.

The ideal candidate will have a strong quantitative background, experience
running cognitive neuroscience experiments and proficiency in
MATLAB/Python/R.

The lab will be located downtown in Toronto, which is a liveable and
cosmopolitan city with a vibrant academic and biomedical community. The
