The Institute of Science and Technology for Brain-inspired Intelligence (ISTBI), Fudan University, Shanghai is seeking to appoint two talented and motivated individuals to serve as full time Post-doctoral Research Associates in a laboratory led by A/Prof. Deniz Vatansever (https://www.researchgate.net/ profile/Deniz_Vatansever). Utilising cutting-edge cognitive assessment methods and neuroimaging technologies (3T, 7T MRI), the team aims to improve our understanding of the macro-scale brain network organisation and its relevance to human cognition in health and disease. Fully-funded research projects include neuroimaging-based investigations into the representation of cognitive flexibility, automaticity and plasticity in the human functional connectome and its dysfunction across mental health disorders.
