Postdoc Positions for the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study
University of California, San Diego
Several funded postdoctoral positions are available in image analysis method
development, including automated cortical- and subcortical segmentation,
advanced diffusion tractography, and fMRI mapping and time series analysis. We
are looking to build a team to help build the next generation of analysis
pipelines and visualization tools for a newly funded study to follow 10,000
children with longitudinal structural and functional imaging across 19 sites
across the US. The study will use a cross-platform Harmonized Human Connectome
Protocol, optimized for quantitative accuracy and consistency of imaging
biomarkers across scanners and time. To learn more about the ABCD study, please
