Postdoctoral Fellow:

The Hoglund Brain Imaging Center (HBIC) at the University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC) is seeking an experienced and qualified individual to serve as a Postdoctoral Fellow (PDF). Under the supervision of Kathleen Gustafson, Ph.D., the individual will conduct postdoctoral-level research in all aspects of electrophysiology including data collection, analysis, grant writing, HSC submissions, preparing and publishing scientific manuscripts and other research duties as assigned. We are seeking a candidate that is self-motivated and career-oriented.

HBIC is an integrated imaging center with MEG, EEG, 3T functional MRI and 9.4T animal imaging capacity. The University of Kansas provides a vibrant clinical and basic research environment and Kansas City offers low-cost, sophisticated, urban living in a rapidly growing city of over 2 million. HBIC brings together scientists from diverse disciplines such as Neurology, Neurosurgery, Radiology, Physiology, Psychiatry, Psychology, Physics, Engineering, Computing, Biochemistry, and Anatomy together in a highly collaborative and integrative environment to exploit new technologies for the study of the central nervous system. Specific research areas include but are not limited to speech, language, and hearing, motor control, brain injury, and signal processing as well as longitudinal investigations of fetal movements, heart rate and heart rate variability which allow investigators to better understand fetal neurobehavioral
development and autonomic nervous system control of the heart.

This Postdoctoral position will be integrated with ongoing studies in the Maternal and Child Nutrition and Development Laboratory. These studies focus on the effects of nutritional supplements taken during pregnancy or delivered in infant formula. Investigations are focused on the effect of long-chain fatty acids (primarily docosahexaenoic acid - DHA) on fetal/infant/child growth and development, including cognitive and visual acuity development as well as ERPs and multi-modal imaging at later ages. This is a collaborative effort that involves Susan E. Carlson (Dietetics and Nutrition), John Colombo
(Cognitive Development Laboratory) and Kathleen M. Gustafson (Vision Science and ERP Laboratory). Interested individuals should find more details about this position and apply through the University of Kansas Medical Human Resources website at: https://jobs.kumc.edu/applicants/jsp/shared/position/JobDetails_css.jsp?postingId=381770 (position #01198086) Specific inquiries about this position can be directed to Justine Karungi,MBA, Assistant Director, Hoglund Brain Imaging Center (jkarungi at kumc.edu ) or 913-588-9067

The University and Center have a longstanding commitment to achieving diversity among faculty, staff, and students. KUMC is an EO/AA Employer.
