POSTDOC POSITION OPEN
The Neuroradiology Section and Memory and Aging Center (MAC) at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) are seeking an exceptional postdoctoral candidate in imaging genetics of neurodegenerative disorders. Using a variety of techniques, ranging from human structural and functional MRI to whole genome sequencing, our research involves elucidating the genetic, neuroanatomic, and molecular characteristics of Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal lobar degeneration, Parkinson's disease and neuroinflammation.
We seek a postdoctoral candidate with a strong background in genetics (and preferably, human imaging) and a desire to use a multi-disciplinary approach to pursue neurodegenerative research. The candidate should have considerable experience with Matlab, R, PLINK and potentially, MRI image analysis tools such as Freesurfer, FSL and SPM. Applicants should have a Ph.D. or M.D. degree with less than five years of postdoctoral experience. Highly motivated individuals with a record of productive research are encouraged to apply. The position is available starting July 1, 2016.
Salary is commensurate with qualifications and experience. Interested applicants should send curriculum vitae/NIH biosketch, and three references to Drs. Rahul Desikan and Jennifer Yokoyama.
