Interventional Cognitive NeuroscienceCognitive Neurology/Neuropsychology Group of the Department of Neurology of The Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine Seeking 1-3 individuals to fill faculty positions of flexible rank, from junior (Research Associate) to senior (Professor) levels. Appropriate candidates should have a Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology, Cognitive Neuroscience, or a comparable empirical discipline. The positions are potentially available immediately. They will be within the Cognitive Neurology/Neuropsychology Group of the Department of Neurology of The Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine. The Cognitive Neurology/Neuropsychology Group is committed to targeted, long-term efforts to safely improve aspects of communication, speech, language, and all related cognitive skills (including aspects of cognitive control and self-awareness) in individuals who have failed to develop language normally (in particular, individuals with autism), lost speech and language functions, or who have developed amnesia and other disorders of learning/memory (see http://www.jhu.edu/cognitiveneurology for a more complete summary of current and planned efforts). Assessment methods are heavily weighted towards behavioral measures, and towards implicit measures (such as evoked potentials, eye movements, pupillometry). The main interventional methods being studied are behavioral, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), and a combination of the two. We seek faculty capable of (a) managing, coordinating, and expanding existing efforts, and/or (b) developing new efforts in keeping with our general goals. As currently envisioned, applicants should have expertise in theoretical and behavioral experimental methods related to one or more of the following areas: (a) lexical retrieval and word production, (b) motor speech control, (c) human learning and memory, including amnesic conditions; and/or (d) executive functions/cognitive control, particularly the processes involved in ‘elementary’ decisions and choices. However, other domains of expertise that are relevant to the overall efforts will be considered. Applicants are also expected to have demonstrated expertise in oral and written communication, management skills, and an independent publication record. The specific positions being offered (in particular, faculty rank and potential associated joint appointment(s)) will depend both upon the candidate’s qualifications, and upon decisions by the appropriate committees within the Department and the University. The positions and expected associated costs (e.g., research assistance) are fully funded from private source(s), pledged through 2016 at a minimum. In their current formulation, these are pure research positions. There are no teaching responsibilities. Independent funding will allow independent efforts. While full-time arrangements are anticipated, there is the possibility of part-time or other flexible arrangements. Applicants are encouraged to contact Barry Gordon, M.D., Ph.D., Therapeutic Cognitive Neuroscience Professor, at 410-955-3407 (voice, 24/7), or via E-mail at bgordon@jhmi.edu, for any preliminary inquiries. For a formal application, please send your CV and a letter of interests to neuro@jhmi.edu.

Postdoctoral FellowshipKessler Foundation Our Stroke Rehabilitation Research department (http://kesslerfoundation.org/researchcenter/stroke) uses a combination of behavioral, neuropsychological, and neurophysiological techniques to study spatial neglect – a common cognitive disorder following a unilateral brain injury such as a stroke. Individuals with spatial neglect typically demonstrate abnormal inattention to the space contralateral to the injured cerebral hemisphere. For example, right-brain-damaged stroke survivors with spatial neglect may fail to attend to, perceive, respond to, or act on stimuli on the left side of their body, which pathologically impedes their everyday activities. Requirements:
Strong programming skills for stimulus presentation and experiment design (e.g., E-Prime, MATLAB, or Presentation) and statistical modeling (e.g., STATA or R) are preferred. Prior experience in working with clinical populations is very desirable. Please send CV, expected date of availability, contact information of three references, and a statement of research interest and career goals to career@kesslerfoundation.org. EEO/M/F/D/V. Training Opportunity: PHD Student And Post- Doctoral FellowLaboratory of Human Cerebrovascular Physiology at the University of Calgary We are looking for a doctoral student and a postdoctoral fellow in human cognitive neurosciences who are interested in completing a studentship/fellowship as part of a CIHR-funded project investigating the effects of exercise on cerebrovascular function and cognition in older adults. These positions will be based in the Laboratory of Human Cerebrovascular Physiology at the University of Calgary. Responsibilities will include being part of an interdisciplinary research project that is enrolling healthy human volunteers aged 55-75 years old, measurement of several physiologic, cognitive and other factors and completion of an exercise intervention.

Candidates should have some or all of the following attributes: i) a strong background in integrative human physiology or psychology, ii) good communication skills (written/spoken English), iii) an excellent academic record, iv) a keen desire to learn, and v) previous research experience working with human volunteers and/or patients in a physiology or psychology research environment. Prior experience with ultrasound imaging, exercise training programs, and/or cognitive aging or neuropsychology will be major assets. However, additional training will be provided to ensure that the successful applicants have the skills required to meet the objectives of the project. Candidates should submit a letter of intent outlining their qualifications and career objectives, an unofficial transcript of academic record, complete list of publications and awards, along with names of 3 referees who have agreed to be contacted.
