post-doctoral research <span class="gmail-il">position</span> is available in the Department of Psychiatry
and Behavioral Science at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN, USA.
The successful candidate will join a multi-disciplinary team of researchers as
part of a project focused on the neural basis of psychotic disorders, which
includes Profs. Michael-Paul Schallmo (<a href="http://schallmolab.umn.edu" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">schallmolab.umn.edu</a>) and Scott Sponheim
(<a href="http://cablab.umn.edu" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">cablab.umn.edu</a>). Our group includes a diverse range of expertise such as neuroimaging, clinical psychopathology, visual neuroscience, and
electrophysiology. The twin cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, MN are part
of a vibrant metropolitan area, and were rated in the <a href="https://realestate.usnews.com/places/minnesota/minneapolis-st-paul" style="color:rgb(5,99,193);text-decoration:underline" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(5,99,193)">Top 10 Best Places to Live in 2018</span></a> by US News.<span></span></span></p>
