*Postdoctoral researcher position in individual differences of plasticity in blindness* The Sensory and Motor Plasticity Lab, led by Ella Striem-Amit, is currently recruiting a highly motivated and dedicated Postdoctoral researcher to join their team at Georgetown University in Washington DC, USA. The SAMP lab explores brain organization and experience-dependent plasticity by studying people born blind, deaf, or without hands, using behavioral and fMRI state-of-the-art analytical techniques. The successful applicant will work on the topic of individual differences in plasticity in people born blind. Specifically, the project will test how brain plasticity in blindness may manifest differently in different individuals, and how these differences may account for their compensatory skills and use of assistive devices. For more information about the lab, see samp-lab.facultysite.georgetown.edu <https://samp-lab.facultysite.georgetown.edu/research>. Excellent understanding of and experience with fMRI and data analysis are required. Strong programming skills (Matlab/R/python, etc.) are also a requirement. The position is not limited to US citizens. The start date is September-October 2023, but flexible in exceptional circumstances. This position is available for up to 4 years.
