A postdoctoral Scholar position is immediately open to work with the Network Neuroscience lab (dayanlab.web.unc.edu) at the Biomedical Research Imaging Center, University of North Carolina School of Medicine. The postdoctoral Scholar will collect and analyze brain connectivity data from healthy volunteers and neurological patients, and also work with large, pre-existing data sets. Our current focus is on neuromodulation of brain networks (e.g., pharmacological or electrical), as well as on early developmental changes in brain network connectivity.

Ph.D. or an MD/Ph.D. in Neuroscience, Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, Physics, Psychology or other related fields.

Excellent quantitative background, relevant programming experience (MATLAB, Python or R), experience analyzing functional and/or structural MRI data and a track record of first-author publications in peer-reviewed journals are essential. Experience in analyzing functional and/or structural connectivity data would be advantageous, as is experience in graph-theoretical methods, machine learning or multivariate pattern similarity methods.

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, color, disability, gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic information, race, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or status as a protected veteran.
