Postdoctoral fellow in multimodal neuroimaging of decision making
by Marios Philiastides Sept. 17, 2014

Sept. 17, 2014

We are looking to appoint one postdoctoral fellow to make a leading contribution to an ESRC funded project on the neurobiology of human decision making using multimodal neuroimaging. The post will be based at the Institute of Neuroscience and Psychology (INP) at the University of Glasgow (ranked 2nd in the UK by the Guardian), which benefits from on-site access to the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging (CCNi). The CCNi is a research-dedicated facility within the INP and it is equipped with state-of-the art brain imaging facilities comprising a 3T fMRI scanner (Siemens Trio), an MEG system, and several TMS and EEG systems, including MR-compatible recording options. Our group uses multimodal neuroimaging coupled with mathematical modelling to characterise the spatiotemporal dynamics and the computational principles of the brain networks underlying human decision making. Our analysis methods are heavily inspired by machine learning and statistical pattern recognition and are designed to exploit trial-to-trial variability in electrophysiologically-derived measures that can be used in conjunction with simultaneously acquired fMRI to tease apart the cascade of constituent cortical and subcortical processes involved in decision making. The primary focus of the project will be to unravel the neural correlates of learning and confidence during decision making, which will form the basis for further development of brain computer interfaces (BCI) for human-machine interaction. The latter will take place in close collaboration with Prof. Paul Sajda’s team at Columbia University in New York with whom the selected candidate will have the opportunity to interact regularly. Candidates must have a PhD (or equivalent) in neuroscience, psychology, cognitive science or in a related discipline. Candidates must have previous practical experience and working knowledge of human neuroimaging (including both EEG and fMRI) as evident by a strong track record of publications in international journals. The post holder must also have working knowledge of multivariate data analysis techniques, excellent programming skills in Matlab and previous experience in using either fSL or SPM analysis software. Previous experience in simultaneous EEG/fMRI experiments and computational modelling is desirable. This post will be available from 5th January 2015 or as soon as possible thereafter for three years. Salary: Grade 7 £33,242 – £37,394 per annum. Informal enquiries may be addressed to Dr. Marios Philiastides at marios.philiastides(a)glasgow.ac.uk. Please note that applications sent directly to this email address will not be accepted. For more details on our research interests visit http://decision.ccni.gla.ac.uk.
