Connectionists: Postdoc position in Computational Neuroimaging of the Cerebellum (Western University, Canada)

[Jörn Diedrichsen]

The Diedrichsen Lab <http://www.diedrichsenlab.org/> is looking to recruit a new postdoctoral associate with interest in studying the human cerebellum. The successful candidate will join an inter-disciplinary research group that uses behavioral, neuroimaging, and computational approaches to investigate the role of the cerebellum in motor control, cognition, and language <https://www.diedrichsenlab.org/res_cerebellarfunction.htm>. Our approach is to use Big Data and Machine Learning to gain insight about the overall functional organization of the cerebellum, which then informs targeted imaging and behavioural experiments. The enthusiastic and supportive environment will enable the candidate to develop their own research program.

The lab is located in the Western Institute of Neuroscience in London, Ontario, Canada, and is part of the Sensorymotor Superlab <https://superlab.ca/about/> and the Computational Brain Sciences group <https://www.uwo.ca/bmi/cbs/> at Western. Systems and cognitive neuroscience is a key area of research strength at Western University, with more than 70 Principal Investigators and 200 trainees. High-resolution imaging at 9.5T, 7T, and 3T is available in-house.

Full application details can be found here <http://www.diedrichsenlab.org/open_postdoc_cerebellum.htm>. Candidates are encourage to contact us early to arrange a meeting to discuss possible research projects. The deadline for applications is September 4th, 2023.
