[Eeglablist] Multiple PhD positions available at the Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience, Rutgers University: Cognitive Neuroimaging and Stimulation

[Travis Baker]

Multiple fully-funded PhD positions (PhD) are available  at the Center for
Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience (CMBN)
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://sasn.rutgers.edu/bns-graduate-program__;!!Mih3wA!ClHPJM8YAa1Cd1WbZKLQOWXuI6bLBTk7Cb6QmjnvRoY-_MHu_h-ob04WvcbbJoqcCJA4LwHrDV3K5SbTl40nWvdpnLmAXCC2$ >, Rutgers University. CMBN
is located in Newark NJ, a short commute from New York City.  Students in
the Behavioral and Neural Sciences Graduate Program perform original
research, culminating in a Ph.D. in neuroscience. The program is hosted by
the Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience (CMBN) at Rutgers
University in Newark. Research in our program spans every level of brain
function - from molecules to behavior to computation - and students have
available to them the full gamut of cutting-edge techniques and approaches.
All students receive tuition and a generous stipend, regardless of
nationality, and additional fellowships are available. Applications are due
December 15th every year.

*Cognitive Neuroscience Focus: For those interested in a cognitive
neuroscience PhD track, t*his position offers an excellent opportunity to
develop research expertise in Cognitive Neuroscience Methods (EEG, MRI,
fMRI, DWI, TMS, TCDS, functional connectivity). Laboratories within CMBN
(e.g., Baker neurostimlab <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://neurostimlab.com/__;!!Mih3wA!ClHPJM8YAa1Cd1WbZKLQOWXuI6bLBTk7Cb6QmjnvRoY-_MHu_h-ob04WvcbbJoqcCJA4LwHrDV3K5SbTl40nWvdpnI2kUkIB$ >, The Cole
Neurocognition Lab <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.colelab.org/__;!!Mih3wA!ClHPJM8YAa1Cd1WbZKLQOWXuI6bLBTk7Cb6QmjnvRoY-_MHu_h-ob04WvcbbJoqcCJA4LwHrDV3K5SbTl40nWvdpnEBZPFD0$ >, Krekelberg Neuroscience
Laboratory <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.vision.rutgers.edu/__;!!Mih3wA!ClHPJM8YAa1Cd1WbZKLQOWXuI6bLBTk7Cb6QmjnvRoY-_MHu_h-ob04WvcbbJoqcCJA4LwHrDV3K5SbTl40nWvdpnPg2kITK$ >) houses an Adept Viper s850
robotic arm used for robot-assisted image-guided transcranial magnetic
stimulation (Ri-TMS), several systems for recording EEG/ERPs, eyetracking,
virtual and augmented reality, and has the capabilities of recording and
analyzing simultaneous EEG-fMRI, and simultaneous EEG-TMS. CMBN benefits
from on-site access to Rutgers University Brain Imaging Center (RUBIC), a
research-dedicated facility equipped with two 3T fMRI scanners (Siemens
TRIO, Prisma) (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://rubic.rutgers.edu__;!!Mih3wA!ClHPJM8YAa1Cd1WbZKLQOWXuI6bLBTk7Cb6QmjnvRoY-_MHu_h-ob04WvcbbJoqcCJA4LwHrDV3K5SbTl40nWvdpnKS9XvNm$ ). For those with an interest in
working with clinical populations, we have superb cooperation with our
medical school faculty in neurology, psychiatry, and neurosurgery, as well
as collaborations with several medical centers in nearby New York City.
