facilities, as well as equipment for eye tracking, 3D visualization
including augmented reality displays, 3D scanning and printing, a Certus
optotrak for recording movement kinematics, MRI-compatible force
transducers, TMS, EEG, as well as custom-designed equipment for presenting
real-world objects under controlled viewing conditions. The position has a
flexible start date, but could be as soon as May 1st, 2018. Applications
will be assessed as they arrive. Position posting will remain open until
filled. Salary will be based on NIH post-doctoral rates and commensurate
with experience. The position is a non-tenure-track full-time ‘A’ contract
appointment for 12 months, with potential for renewal for additional years
based on performance.

multidisciplinary neuroscience research group. Access to a wide variety of
additional resources and research opportunities is available through the
NIH COBRE for Integrative Neuroscience, including 3T fMRI scanners,
augmented and virtual reality suite, and 256-channel HD-EEG systems.



Reno sits at the base of the Eastern Sierras, minutes from Lake Tahoe,
major ski resorts, and unlimited outdoor recreation.
