Connectionists: Postdoctoral position in modeling brain responses related to temporally dynamic event (i.e. speech and music) at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario

[Proloy Das]

 Dear all,

We are looking for a post-doc to work on single-trial M/EEG source
localization. The focus of the position is on methods for studying brain
responses related to temporally dynamic events, including (but not limited
to) auditory perception (e.g., speech and music). The position is at
McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario.

The primary goal of the NIH funded project is developing data analysis
tools to unveil how the human brain encodes complex and natural stimuli
using electrophysiological (primarily MEG and EEG). The overall approach is
based on the neuro-current response function method (introduced in Das et
al., 2020; https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2020.116528). Planned work
includes
theoretical development of the neuro-current response function method as
well as implementation of a user-friendly analysis pipeline. We are looking
for applicants interested in theory and algorithm development, as well as
development of a versatile data pipeline with user-friendly front-end and
documentation. Development will be using public M/EEG datasets, which
provides room to work on diRerent topic areas, for example auditory and
speech processing, emotion perception, external stimulus processing in
patients undergoing anesthesia etc.

The research fellows will work as a part of multidisciplinary team
including PIs, postdoctoral researchers with Engineering, Neuroscience and
Medicine background. Candidates will work primarily with Christian
Brodbeck, PhD (McMaster; https://christianbrodbeck.net), Proloy Das, PhD (
https://proloydas.net), but may also consult with a team with diverse topic
interests in neuroscience, including Isabelle Buard, PhD (UofColorado),
Monty Escabí, PhD (UConn), Patrick L. Purdon, PhD (Stanford) and Steven
StuRlebeam, MD (MGH).
