 Dear all,

Are you interested in brains, networks, models, Bayes, dynamical systems,
and neuroimaging (or some combination of these) and looking for a
postdoctoral position? We have a Research Fellow position available in
Melbourne at the Turner Institute for Brain and Mental Health.

This position is funded for two years, in the first instance, to work with
a team of collaborators at Monash University (Adeel Razi, Lead), University
of Melbourne (Andrew Zalesky) and University College London (Karl Friston).

You will be situated within the Computational and Systems Neuroscience
Laboratory: www.adeelrazi.org. For further details see below. For position
description and applying online go here: https://tinyurl.com/srpnuk5

For any informal inquiries please get in touch at adeel.razi at moansh.edu.

Best wishes,
Adeel

*The Opportunity*

This exciting new Research Fellow position will generate research relevant
to the development of brain connectivity analysis methods, with a focus on
Dynamic Causal Modelling (DCM), which is a framework for modelling neural
circuitry (i.e. effective connectivity).

You will be part of an interdisciplinary team of researchers who develop
and apply novel analysis methodology for inferring brain connectivity using
multimodal neuroimaging. The appointee will coordinate development efforts
as part of an Australian Research Council (ARC) Discovery Project awarded
to Monash University (Dr Adeel Razi, Lead Investigator), University of
Melbourne (Associate Professor Andrew Zalesky) and University College
London (Professor Karl Friston).

Ideally we are seeking someone with an honours degree in Engineering,
Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, Psychology and a doctoral
qualification (or close to completion) in Neuroscience, Biomedical
Engineering or closely related field relevant to functional MRI.

If you have a programming ability in either MATLAB, Python or R, strong
quantitative background and good knowledge of multimodal neuroimaging, we
look forward to receiving your application.

This role is a full-time position; however, flexible working arrangements
may be negotiated.

At Monash University, we are committed to being a Child Safe organisation.
Some positions at the University will require the incumbent to hold a
valid Working with Children Check.

Your application must address the selection criteria. Please refer to "How
to apply for Monash Jobs
