Dear Friends
Can you spread this announcement among your students and collaborators? If anyone is
interested to come to Paris and work on infant’s electrophysiological data, there is a lot
to do!
Yours sincerely

POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP ON EARLY FUNCTIONAL NETWORKS IN THE HUMAN INFANT BRAIN AND THEIR
RELATION TO CONSIOUSNESS
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position supervised by Ghislaine
Dehaene-Lambertz to study the organization of the early functional networks in the human
infant brain and their relation to consciousness using EEG/MEG. The team is part of INSERM
‘Cognitive Neuroimaging Unit' (
http://www.unicog.org, director : Stanislas Dehaene) at
NeuroSpin (director : Denis LeBihan) in the greater Paris region. NeuroSpin is an
outstanding interdisciplinary research environment that houses several research
laboratories and combines expertise in cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology,
magneto-electrophysiology, high field MR imaging and imaging data analysis. The project is
part of an European community project to study consciousness in adults, monkeys, infants
and comatose patients. The postdoc will program and analyse EEG experiments (subliminal
presentation, stimulus collision, etc..) and discuss the results with the other teams
involved. Applicants should have a PhD degree in Neuroscience, Psychology, or in
Mathematics, Physics. Prior experience with EEG/MEG analysis or signal processing is
valued. The position is funded for one to three years, and should be started during autumn
2012. Applications will be considered until the position is filled. For further
information or to submit an application (including the names of two referees) please
