Successful candidates will evidence good communication skills, technical expertise (including prior experience with either neuroscience or imaging tools), and a strong desire for research dissemination. Post-doctoral candidates will have completed an MD or PhD or equivalent degree in neuroscience, psychology, biology, chemistry, pharmacology, biomedical engineering/signal processing or related discipline.
