[Eeglablist] EEG and Machine Learning Postdoctoral Position at Stanford for Personalized Medicine

[Wei Wu]

The Laboratory of Amit Etkin, MD PhD at Stanford University is currently
accepting applications for a postdoctoral fellow focused on machine
learning and other sophisticated analyses of electroencephalography (EEG)
data. This position is funded by an NIH Director’s Pioneer Award.



The focus of the position is on creating and applying a variety of data
analytic approaches to large EEG data sets (across individuals, or
longitudinally within-individual) for the purpose of prediction of clinical
outcome and tracking of clinical change. Particular emphasis is on
connecting signal processing methodology to the classification challenges,
potential use of deep learning, and building on applications from other
related areas (e.g. brain-computer interface or other decoding efforts). It
is anticipated that this work will contribute to development of
clinic-translatable biomarkers, and will be part of FDA approval-directed
efforts ongoing in the lab.



The successful applicant will have a PhD in Engineering, Statistics,
Computer Science, Neuroscience, Neurophysiology, Psychology, or related
fields. Advanced experience with EEG data analysis and/or machine learning is
required. Additionally, strong quantitative skills and a programming
background areimportant. Duties will also include manuscript preparation,
presentation of findings at conferences, and contribution to the
preparation of grants. Laboratory and Stanford resources are extensive, MRI
scanners, simultaneous EEG/fMRI, multiple high density EEG setups, and
concurrent transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)/fMRI and concurrent
TMS/EEG setups. Salary commensurate with experience. More information about
our ongoing studies can be found at: http://etkinlab.stanford.edu.



To apply, please send a curriculum vitae, a statement describing research
interests and relevant background and the names of three recommenders, as
well as relevant reprints/preprints of research articles to:
