  • POSTDOC " BRAIN AND INTENTIONAL MOVEMENT CONTROL"

    Please feel free to forward this message to anyone potentially interested.
    1. Postdoctoral Fellowship “Brain and Intentional Movement Control: an fMRI
    study”

    Applications are invited for a one-year post-doctoral research fellowship
    (funded by the French Ministry of Research), to study brain mechanisms
    involved in intentional motor control using fMRI. The candidate will work in
    the group investigating the “Neural Substrates of Intentional Movement
    Control” (Mireille Bonnard) in the laboratory “Movement and Perception”
    (CNRS, University of the Méditerranée, Marseille). This group uses fMRI and
    TMS techniques to study the relation between the spatio-temporal
    organisation of cerebral activation and the intentional adaptive
    capabilities of movement in healthy human subjects.

    We have access to an fMRI machine of 3T which is fully available for
    research. Go and see on the following web site for some more information (in
    French): http://irmfmrs.free.fr/
    Besides the normal movement analysis systems (electrogoniometers, force
    transducer, EMG…), our laboratory is equipped with a TMS system, triggered
    by a computer at a predetermined moment of the movement.

    We propose a salary of 1830 Euro net monthly for one year with a possibility
    to extend the stay for 6 months. The candidate must be 35 years at most on
    December 31st 2002, having obtained his/her PhD (in Neuroscience,
    Psychology, Human Movement Science or a related numerate discipline) outside
    France, and presently working outside of France. Moreover candidates must
    originate from USA, Canada, Australia, New-Zeeland, Norway, Switzerland,
    Russia, Poland, Japan, Korea, Hungary, Israel, Brazil. Candidates should be
    enthusiastic about brain and motor behaviour, and should have experience
    with or be keen to learn the methods used in fMRI (conceiving protocols,
    data acquisition and analysis) and the skills of motor behavior measurement.

    The appointment is available from 1st December 2002, for 1 year. Closing
    date for applications is 26st August 2002. Applications should include 1) a
    curriculum vitae, 2) one or two letters of reference.
