Connectionists: Postdoctoral position jointly in Behrmann/Grover labs at CMU

[Marlene Behrmann]

Postdoctoral position jointly in Behrmann/Grover labs CMU in 
understanding neural mechanisms through noninvasive brain monitoring

A postdoc position on utilizing noninvasive measurement modalities is 
available in the labs of Marlene Behrmann and Pulkit Grover at Carnegie 
Mellon University (Pittsburgh, PA). The team's goal is to utilize 
existing and novel engineering and mathematical tools to understand 
neural mechanisms in healthy and diseased states through EEG 
measurements, possibly complemented by fMRI. The role of the postdoc 
will be to lead experimental testing, simulations, and data analysis. 
The postdoc will collaborate with information theorists, 
neuroscientists, experimentalists, and clinicians. This is an 
opportunity to work on challenging and applicable scientific problems in 
a highly interdisciplinary and vibrant environment.

Requirements​: PhD in a related discipline (Engineering, Computer 
Science, Neuroscience, or Biomedical Engineering) with a strong 
experimental and computational record. Background in EEG recordings is 
required. The labs are committed to the professional development of the 
members, making this position a valuable preparation for those 
interested in academic, industrial or entrepreneurial careers. The 
position has no mandatory teaching or administrative duties.

The ideal start date is July 2019, but early applications will also be 
accepted. The position is initially for 12 months with the possibility 
of renewal. Compensation will be competitive, and commensurate with 
relevant experience. Candidates should send a CV, a statement of 
research experience and interests, expected date of availability, and 
the contact information for three references to behrmann at cmu.edu 
<mailto:behrmann at cmu.edu>and ​pulkit at cmu.edu <mailto:pulkit at cmu.edu>with 
the subject line “neural monitoring postdoc”. Application review will 
proceed until the position is filled.
