functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) signals within the context of
multimodal neuroimaging. A successful candidate will (1) conduct research
and receive training within any or all of the following focus areas
including cultural resilience/engagement, depression, anxiety, and
addiction; (2) develop, design, and implement independent research
projects; (3) collect and analyze EEG/ERP data; (4) understand
relationships between ERP and fMRI data; (5) work with research

environment with a diverse team of collaborators. LIBR has well-documented
large data sets (including fMRI, EEG, psychophysiological, behavioral, and
self-report data) already collected and available for analyses while new
experiments are being set up.

*Facilities: *A state-of-the-art neuroimaging research environment,
including two 3-Tesla MRI scanners (GE Discovery MR750; fully
research-dedicated), equipped with BOLD and ASL pulse sequencing, a
custom-developed real-time fMRI system, an fMRI-compatible EEG system, and
a stand-alone EEG system.

data; and (3) solid foundation in statistics. Preferred skills: (1)
Experience with Brain Vision Analyzer; (2) solid foundation in programming
skills (e.g., Matlab, Python); (3) Experience with EEGLab, ERPLab, and/or
Fieldtrip for EEG data processing; and (4) experience with the R
statistical analysis platform.
Salary/Benefits: This is a full-time research position for 2 years with
renewable funding up to 3-5 years. A full benefits package is available.
