Two Postdoctoral Fellows in Computational modeling and Precision Medicine applied to Parkinson’s Disease

We are looking for two highly motivated postdoctoral fellows, for joining the Neuroinformatics for Personalized Medicine lab (NeuroPM) at the Montreal Neurological Institute (McGill University, Montreal, Canada). The postdoctoral fellows will be under the supervision of Professor Yasser Iturria-Medina, and will be expected to collaborate with associated groups (e.g. Integrative Neuroscience Centre, Madrid, Spain). The projects, for 1.5 years and potentially extendable for another year, includes the analysis of multiple imaging modalities and therapeutic interventions in Parkinson’s disease, as well as the application of state-of-the-art brain computational models.

The NeuroPM lab (http://www.neuropm-lab.com/) is affiliated with the Healthy brain for Healthy Lives (HBHL) initiative (https://www.mcgill.ca/hbhl/), the Ludmer Center (http://ludmercentre.ca/), and the McConnell Brain Imaging Center (https://www.mcgill.ca/bic/), involving computationally intensive and interdisciplinary research on the brain. The MNI is an internationally renowned institution, characterized by the integration of research and patient care.

Interested candidates should have a solid background in brain imaging and neurodegeneration. Experience in brain computational modeling will be an asset. Interested persons should send their CV, a cover letter stating research interests, and two reference letters. The fellows are expected to start as soon as possible.

Salary: 45,000CAN$/year+25% in benefits.
