[Freesurfer] 3 years Post Doc position at the Neurofunctional Imaging Group in Bordeaux - France
Dear all, Please find enclose a 3 years Post Doctoral position that may be of interest. Post Doc in data processing and databasing of large neuroimaging datasets. The Neurofunctional Imaging Group (GIN) is a CNRS-CEA joint research team of the Neurodegenerative Disease Institute, UMR 5293 at Bordeaux University. The GIN is a multidisciplinary research team gathering scientists with training in instrumentation, cognitive neurosciences, signal processing and databasing. The GIN is a partnering member of the MULTI-LATERAL (Multi-level Integrative Analysis of Brain Lateralization for Language, http://flagera.eu/?q=FLAG-ERA-call-2015-projects <http://flagera.eu/?q=FLAG-ERA-call-2015-projects>) project funded by the FLAG-ERA European consortium set up to contribute to the construction of the Human Brain Project Flagship project. This partnership aims to identify the anatomical, functional and genetic determinants of brain lateralization for language functions. Within this context, the GIN offers a 3 years Post Doc / Research Engineer position immediately available. The core work of the Post Doc will to extract accurate structural and intrinsic connectivity asymmetry phenotypes across a range of large scale imaging datasets: First, the post-doc will contribute to develop improved methods and dedicated software to reliably and automatically measure individual differences in lateralization for anatomy and resting state intrinsic connectivity. In a second phase, the Post Doc will apply the methods in brain imaging datasets (about 10 000 subjects, including the BIL, BIG, I-Share and UK-biobank neuroimaging databases) having genetic data available, for the purposes of association and rare variant analysis followed by integrated genome-level analysis with transcriptomic (lateralized gene expression) dataand genomic gene-set analysis. The applicant will benefit from the support of existing research in this topic area and preliminary works in the accurate definition of both structural and resting state asymmetry characterization together with data management of large neuroimaging cohorts. The qualified applicant should have a PhD (or equivalent) in neuro-image analysis, computer science (signal and/or image processing) or related field and a strong background / experience in neuroimaging data processing. Applicants should have experience with tools for analysis of neuroimaging data (Freesurfer, SPM,…) and a relevant programming experience (Unix, C/C++ / python, MATLAB). For further information, please contact Dr. Fabrice Crivello (fabrice.crive...@u-bordeaux.fr <mailto:fabrice.crive...@u-bordeaux.fr>). Salary is according to Bordeaux University salary grid depending on applicant experience. The position is limited for 3 years. Job location is in Bordeaux - France. Interested candidates should send their applications including CV with publication list and recommendation letters (names and contact information) and a written summary of research interests to fabrice.crive...@u-bordeaux.fr <mailto:fabrice.crive...@u-bordeaux.fr>.

[Freesurfer] 2 Years Post Doctoral Position in Bordeaux - France
Please find enclose a 2 years post-doctoral position in Bordeaux - France 2 Years Post Doctoral Position in Bordeaux - France The Neurofunctional Imaging Group (GIN) is a CNRS-CEA joint research unit of the Bordeaux University (UMR 5296, dir. Bernard Mazoyer) and a core member of the TRAIL http://trail.labex-univ-bordeaux.fr/ Laboratory of Excellence. The GIN is a multidisciplinary research unit gathering scientists with initial training in mathematics and instrumentation, cognitive neurosciences, signal processing and databasing. One objective of the current GIN research project is to develop new tools to characterize and describe the gray matter anatomical connectivity networks. Within this area we have a position for a 2 years Post Doc. Description of the position Recent work on brain connectivity modeling revealed that the topographic organization of this connectivity is not limited to large-scale anatomical pathways generally observable in diffusion MRI, thus reinforcing the interest of studies focusing on the characterization of cortical structural connectivity and its variability. Therefore, the estimation of relevant grey matter connectomes strongly relies on the choice of an ad'hoc cerebral parcellisation. We propose a post doc project to first implement a probabilistic cortical atlas derived from cortical parcellisations defined individually to optimally extract cortical thickness and volume of each individual. The second aim of the post doc project is to compute cortical structural connectivity to quantify the inter-individual variability of brain organization together with the effects of specific factors such as gender, manual preference, functional lateralization or cognitive skills. The strength of the present project is that it will benefits from the already acquired BILGIN database composed of 453 healthy volunteers balanced for gender and handedness. Hence, the first probabilistic cortical atlas will be operated over a large sample, the 453 participants having been previously pre-processed. Qualification and experience The qualified applicant should have a PhD in neuro-image analysis, cognitive neuroscience, computer science or related field and a background in neuroimage processing. Applicants should have experience with existing tools for analysis of neuroimaging data (SPM, FSL, Freesurfer.) and a relevant programming experience (MATLAB). For further information, please contact Dr. Fabrice Crivello (fabrice.crive...@u-bordeaux2.fr mailto:fabrice.crive...@u-bordeaux2.fr).
