Subject: [brams-news] Post-doc and RA positions - Auditory Cognitive
Neuroscience and Autism in Montreal
Post doctoral position in auditory cognitive neuroscience and autism
(Montreal)
Auditory, Brain and Cognitive Development Laboratory (ABCDlab.com)
Affiliated institutes:
International Laboratory for Brain Music and Sound (brams.org) and Center
for Brain Language and Music (crblm.ca)
Montreal Children's Hospital Research Institute (McGill University Health
Centre)
Montreal Neurological Institute (McGill University)
A full-time post doctoral position is available in the 'Auditory, Brain and
Cognitive Development Laboratory' (ABCDlab.com). The lab mission is to
better understand the behavioral and brain correlates of human sound
processing (such as music and speech) in both typical and atypical
development (i.e., autism) in both adults and children. We also conduct
studies on learning and brain plasticity across development in individuals
with specialized training such as music and dance. To these aims, we conduct
behavioral and brain imaging studies using MRI of brain structure (e.g.,
Voxelbased Morphometry, Cortical thickness, Diffusion Tensor Imaging) and
brain function (i.e., fMRI).
Candidates must possess a PhD, previous publication record, and strong
communication and organization skills. Candidates must have a strong
background in one or more of the following: auditory cognitive neuroscience
(on music and/ or dance is an asset), brain imaging (structure, functional
MRI) and working with children (and in particular with autism or other
neurodevelopmental disorder). The post-doctoral fellow will participate in
all phases of research, including recruitment, data collection, data
analysis (behavioral and brain imaging), and manuscript preparation.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to, writing ethics protocols,
providing instruction and supervision to graduate research assistants on
experimental procedures assisting with recruitment and scheduling
participants, testing participants (children and adults), and maintaining
rigorous scientific and ethical standards. The PI is committed to the
promotion of the postdoctoral fellow's career development by creating an
exciting and dynamic research environment, and by encouraging the
preparation of research papers.
The post-doc position is initially for one year, with possible renewal for a
second year. Salary will be in line with University post-doctoral stipend
levels. The applicant is
expected to apply for external post-doctoral funding. Please send a cover
letter describing previous training and your career goals, CV, and
publications directly to Dr. Krista Hyde <mailto:[log in to unmask]>
[log in to unmask] Applicants should also provide names of three
recommenders and arrange for letters of recommendation to be sent
separately. The appointment start date is for as soon as possible.
