1. New perspective piece, "A tripartite view of the posterior cingulate cortex", out now in @NatRevNeurosci: nature.com/articles/s4158… with coauthors @SRHeilbronner; @NeuroPolarbear; @skoslov; Megan Monko; Lyndsey Aponik-Gremillion.
In a new study, funded in part by the @NIH #BRAINInitiative, researchers tested new technology that allows people with spinal injuries to feel complex sensations of touch. Learn more about this groundbreaking study: go.nih.gov/xGZbQmd #studyBRAIN
Our department is recruiting! New tenure-track, open rank faculty position in the Department of Psychology at the University of Michigan (emphasis on human cognition and artificial intelligence). apply.interfolio.com/169170
Official job ad is now live: jobs.uiowa.edu/postdoc/view/4…
I will be looking to hire 2-3 post-docs over the next few months to work on cognitive control in humans, using EEG, TMS, DBS, sEEG, fMRI, or related methods. If you know anybody, please tell them to email me. Formal ad to follow. Lab website: wessellab.org
It's publication day for 📘Elusive Cures. What a moment! 1st book, 1st time on Mindscape. Here, @seanmcarroll and I have a wide-ranging conversation about the brain, including: Why are brain and mental disorders so hard to understand and treat?
If you are a scientist looking or needing to leave the US and have some experience/interest with NHP electrophysiology, get in touch.
We will likely be looking for someone with expertise with optical methods in vivo, cranial window surgeries in mice, analysis of 2P imaging data (especially ML-based), viral approaches. Nothing posted yet, but I know there are good people looking, so please reach out.
Come join us at Duke!
The Cogan Lab is looking for a new clinical research specialist/research assistant! If you are interested in speech, language, and BCI and want to work with patients with implanted with intracranial electrodes, reach out! coganlab.org/news
1/ We're dedicating $100M to support American scientists facing funding cuts through the Lux Science Helpline, an expansion of our Lux Labs program. To compete in the future, innovation must be funded 🧪💡
I have ANOTHER postdoc position open here: jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/250574 Please get in touch if you are interested in intracranial research into human cognition.
🚨🚨 I'm recruiting a postdoc to come work with me at Rutgers! If you are interested in LFP and single-neuron data in humans, please reach out. Rutgers is a wonderful environment for human neuroscience research! Position: jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/240269 Lab: sites.rutgers.edu/qasim-lab/
My lab (willseylab.org) is looking for a postdoc to help advance human BCIs for motor/speech restoration. Ideal candidates will have a PhD in EE, CS, BME, or MechE. Email me your CV ([email protected]). @umichneuro @UMich @UMBME @UM_MNI @UMBiointerfaces
We're thrilled to announce that @marceldagli, @MichelotMichel, and @rishabrama have matched into our #Neurosurgery Residency Program! #Match2025 #MatchDay
Hope you can attend to learn a bit about what you can do to treat your tremor!
We see a lot of patients with essential tremor at Pennsylvania Hospital and for a variety of reasons, focused ultrasound, deep brain stimulation, or gamma knife may not be an option for all of them. We completed our first laser thalamotomy yesterday with this magical result!
Basic science is inspired by curiosity, accountable to evidence, and subject to peer review. Politics should have no role.
The link for this position had gone down for a bit; it's back up, and I am still looking for a postdoc excited to work with human intracranial data. Well-suited for animal electrophysiologists to jump to human data; all that's needed is coding and signal processing experience!
