- Development of new research lines with potential grant writing opportunities

This opportunity will allow you to:

- Work in a world-class clinical research workplace




- Present findings at national/international conferences (e.g., Human Brain Mapping)
- Publish in excellent journals across a number of fields (e.g., Neurosurgery, Neuroimaging, Neurology, Psychiatry), with 2-4 anticipated publications over 2-3 years
- Actively engage and network with the large Toronto brain science community with one of the highest densities of neuroscientists in North America

The ideal candidate will possess the following characteristics:

- A neuroimaging Ph.D. in neuroscience, psychology, medical physics, or related fields
- Expertise in one or more of the following areas: Peripheral nerve imaging, diffusion MR tractography and analysis, MR image acquisition, pre-clinical models
- Strong scripting or programming expertise in one or more of the following languages/tools: MATLAB, Python, R
- Expertise in one or more neuroimaging software/tools with prior work in image analysis: 3D Slicer, MRtrix3, FreeSurfer, FSL, ANTs, SPM
