<div class="">Post-Doctoral Position at the Montreal Neurological Institute, McGill University<br class="">
<br class="">
Neurophysiology (MEG) of Speech Auditory Processing in Aging<br class="">
<br class="">
We are looking for a creative, post-doctoral MEG specialist to work under our joint supervision (Etienne de Villers-Sidani & Sylvain Baillet) on a study of how aging affects the neurophysiological mechanisms of speech processing. A specific focus will be on
age-related changes in the tonotopic auditory cortex and their implication on speech comprehension. We use a multimodal approach, with an emphasis on MEG and advanced data analytics, in the framework of predictive inference for auditory perception (e.g., Morillon
& Baillet, PNAS 2017; Donhauser & Baillet, Neuron, in press).<br class="">
<br class="">
The fellowship will be held at the McConnell Brain Imaging Centre, a leading research facility specializing in multi-modal human brain imaging, including 3 & 7-T MRI, PET, MEG, TMS and EEG. The BIC hosts about 150 staff members and students who specialize in
human brain imaging and neuroscience.<br class="">
<br class="">
The McConnell Brain Imaging Centre is located at the Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI) and Hospital, on the downtown campus of McGill University, in the heart of Montreal – probably one of the coolest student cities worldwide. The MNI is recognized as a
world leader in neuroimaging, neuroscience, and the study of neurological diseases. Overall, this is an exciting opportunity to advance systems neuroscience and to benefit from a thriving research and learning environment. <br class="">
<br class="">
Interested candidates need a solid background in brain imaging (preferably MEG) and good analytical and scientific coding skills (Matlab or Python). Experience in neurodegeneration, brain computational modeling and statistics are further assets.<br class="">
<br class="">
Duration: One-year, extensible.<br class="">
Start Date: Position available immediately.<br class="">
<br class="">
Please send a CV, a one-page statement of research interests and accomplishments, and the names of two references to <a href="mailto:sylvain.baillet@mcgill.ca" class="">sylvain.baillet@mcgill.ca</a>.<br class="">
