Research position (PhD) in translational developmental neuroscience
(with a focus on eating disorders) at the Department of Child and
Adolescent Psychiatry, University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus,

Dresden University of Technology, Germany

PLEASE REPOST FOR INTERESTED PARTIES Job Description: The Department
of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Dresden University of Technology,
Germany invites applications for a research position (PhD) in
neuroimaging of eating disorders (ED). This is a full time position
within the newly funded Translational Developmental Neuroscience Group
(Dr. S. Ehrlich). Some of the work will be carried out in close
collaboration with scientists at the Charité - Universitätsmedizin
Berlin and the Massachusetts General Hospital/ Harvard Medical School
(Boston, USA). Responsibilities will include the acquisition and
analysis of a range of behavioral and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
data. A variety of additional information will also be collected,
including neuropsychological and psychiatric scales, physiological and
endocrinological information. Imaging sessions will take place on the
Neuroimaging Center's 3T Siemens TIM-Trio scanner and data collected
includes high-quality structural, diffusion, and functional MRI data.
Applicants for the position must have completed (a) a Bachelor, Master
or Diploma degree in a relevant field (Psychology, Biology,
Biomedicine, Biophysics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering) and
(b) participated in research activities within the past years.
Experience in computer programming (Linux/Unix shell scripting, C++
and/or MATLAB), neuroimaging analysis methods (FSL, SPM, FreeSurfer),
advanced statistical analyses and scientific writing would be a plus.
The successful applicant will join a multidisciplinary team of
researchers and clinicians and will receive further training in
psychometric and endocrinological techniques and the application of
analysis tools for neuroimaging data. Psychologists or physicians who
wish to advance in their clinical training may be able to dedicate
some amount of their time to work with patients. The position is
available for a start date as soon as September 15th 2010. Review of
applications will begin immediately and will continue until the
position is filled. The position is guaranteed for one year with the
possibility of renewal after positive evaluation.
Salary will be consistent with levels in accordance with the German
Research Foundation (50% TV-L: E 13). Compensation includes health
insurance, and vacation time. To apply or request more information,
please send a cover letter detailing professional objectives and
interests, CV, and the names and email addresses of two references
(all together in one pdf file in German or English) with the subject
line “ED doctoral position" to the address below. Applications from
many disciplines may be considered, and the position is open to
qualified international applicants. Applicants with a disability will
be given preference in the selection process. - Show quoted text -

Research position (PhD) in translational developmental neuroscience
(with a focus on schizophrenia) at the Department of Child and
Adolescent Psychiatry, University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus,

Dresden University of Technology, Germany

PLEASE REPOST FOR INTERESTED PARTIES Job Description: The Department
of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Dresden University of Technology,
Germany invites applications for a research position (PhD) in the
field of imaging genetics with a focus on the neurodevelopment of
schizophrenia. The aim of the project is to establish relationships
between heritable risk factors and brain-based biomarkers for
schizophrenia. This is a full time position within the newly funded
Translational Developmental Neuroscience Group (Dr. S. Ehrlich). Most
of the work will be carried out in close collaboration with scientists
at the Massachusetts General Hospital/ Harvard Medical School (Boston,
USA). Responsibilities will include the acquisition and analysis of a
range of behavioral, psychiatric and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
as well as genetic and epigenetic data. Imaging sessions will take
place on the Neuroimaging Center's 3T Siemens TIM-Trio scanner and
data collected will include high-quality structural, diffusion, and
functional MRI data. However, most of the work will be with existing
large scale datasets and a large quantity of genetic markers from
genom-wide association studies. Applicants for the position must have
completed (a) a Bachelor, Master or Diploma degree in a relevant field
(Psychology, Biology, Biomedicine, Biophysics, Computer Science,
Electrical Engineering) and (b) participated in research activities
within the past years. Experience in computer programming (Linux/Unix
shell scripting, C++ and/or MATLAB), neuroimaging analysis methods
(FSL, SPM, Freesurfer), genomics, advanced statistical analyses and
scientific writing would be a plus. The successful applicant will join
an international multidisciplinary team of researchers and clinicians
and will receive further training in the application of analysis tools
for neuroimaging and genetic data. The position is available for a
start date as soon as September 15th 2010. Review of applications will
begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled. The
position is guaranteed until 31.12.2011 with the possibility of
renewal after positive evaluation. Psychologists or physicians who
