Postdoctoral Marie Curie Fellowship in Neuroimaging (fMRI / morphometry) at the Department of Psychiatry, Friedrich-Schiller-University, Jena, Germany

Salary: EUR 48.786 p.a. (gross income / pre-tax) plus mobility allowances

The Neuroimaging Laboratory at the Department of Psychiatry,
Friedrich-Schiller-University of Jena is inviting applications from
post-doctoral / experienced researchers in neuroimaging. We are seeking a
dedicated scientist with previous research experience in MR imaging, esp. with
regards to fMRI experiment set-up and data analysis. The applicant should be
familiar with standard software like SPM or FSL and proficient in applying
these for statistical analyses of (event-related) fMRI series. Programming
skills (matlab / C++) as well as stimulus display software (e.g. presentation)
confer an advantage. We welcome applications from graduates in psychology,
engineering, medicine, as well as any other related fields.

The post is initially offered for 1.5 years, an extension being subject to
progress. The work will mainly involve data analysis (fMRI and/or morphometry)
on projects involving the functional and structural basis of schizophrenia,
focussing on a large sample of twins and an ongoing twin study.
The basic salary offered (Marie Curie rate) is 48.786 € per year (pre-tax, i.e.
including employer's contribution to social security), plus a mobility
allowance of 6.228 € per year (single) or 9.964 € per year (married), an annual
travel allowance, and (if applicable) a single career exploratory award.
