[Eeglablist] Post doctoral fellowship in auditory cognitive neuroscience

[Laurel Trainor]

Post-doc for auditory developmental studies with TMS and EEG

We are seeking applicants to nominate for a post-doctoral fellowship  
award by the Auditory Cognitive Neuroscience (ACN) Network (http://www.acn-create.org/admissions/ 
), in the Auditory Development Laboratory in the Department of  
Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour, McMaster University and the  
McMaster Institute for Music and the Mind, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.

The post-doctoral fellow will work with Dr. Laurel Trainor, and  
participate in studies concerning the neural mechanisms underlying  
rhythm processing and their plasticity with music training in adults  
and children as well as clinical populations, using transcranial  
magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroencephalography (EEG).

The studies will be part of collaborative research with Drs. Larry  
Roberts and Geoffry Hall at McMaster University and Drs. Tomáš Paus,  
Takako Fujioka, and Bernhard Ross at the Rotman Research Institute in  
Toronto.

Also the ACN provides scientific exchange opportunities through annual  
summer workshops with trainees and mentors in the other participating  
laboratories in the Montreal and Toronto areas.

We are looking for candidates with a PhD with a strong track record of  
publication and experience in TMS-related neuroimaging studies and  
behavioural methods.

Please contact Dr. Laurel Trainor (LJT at mcmaster.ca) for more details.  
The deadline for ACN award application is January 20, 2012, so we will  
begin looking at application in early January.
