**Position Description**
The Surgical Neuromodulation Lab, part of the Neurosciences & Mental Health Program at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) Research Institute is recruiting a post-doctoral researcher to work in close collaboration with research and clinician scientists in analyzing intracranial electrophysiologic data of individuals with various neurologic disorders.
Under the direction of Dr. George Ibrahim and colleagues, you will work closely with a team of clinicians, engineers, and scientists to study the connectomic basis underlying some of the most common and debilitating neurological diseases affecting children.
The Surgical Neuromodulation Lab boasts a wealth of experience and expertise in the application of digital signal processing to multimodal neurobiological signals, including electroencephalography (from intracranial and scalp electrodes), magnetoencephalography, and advanced neuroimaging, in understanding and treating disorders of the nervous system. A substantial amount of data and tools already exist for our many ongoing projects, and an enthusiastic post-doctoral researcher could immediately start analyzing large datasets.
**Here's What You'll Need:**
· Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in neuroscience, computer science, engineering, or a related area
· Experience with digital signal processing of neurological signals
· Track record of publishing scientific papers in top journals as a lead author
· Exceptional communication skills
· Desire to work in a team and mentor enthusiastic trainees
· A commitment to understanding and aiding in the pursuit of equity, diversity and inclusion objectives
**We offer:**
· Initial contract will be for a period of 1 year, with the possibility of extension.
· A competitive salary based on qualifications and experience.
· The SickKids Research Institute offers many opportunities for career development and additional training as part of the Research Training Centre.
