<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">A position for a postdoctoral research associate in human cognitive neuroscience is available in the Reinhart Lab at Boston University, led by Associate Professor Rob Reinhart.
The lab studies large-scale rhythmic neural mechanisms of perception and cognition in the human brain. Noninvasive brain stimulation techniques (HD-tACS, TI) are combined with electrophysiology (EEG) and source reconstruction (beamforming), neuroimaging (MRI,
DTI, fMRI), and computational approaches (e.g., MVPA, RSA, DDM, RL, BHM).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">We are seeking an extremely motivated postdoctoral researcher with a background in human electrophysiology or neuroimaging. This is a unique opportunity in several respects.
First, the postdoctoral associate will enjoy an extraordinary degree of intellectual freedom and creative control over their work, as our funding sources include large philanthropic gifts and fungible retention accounts, allowing us to pursue virtually any
question that piques our curiosity. That said, our lab interests do tend to revolve around the neurocomputational nature of visual perceptual and higher-order cognitive abilities using neural oscillations and how they synchronize within and between cortical
regions. The breadth of research topics, subject populations, and methods is also unique. We are currently conducting studies ranging from low vision (e.g., contrast sensitivity, 3D-shape perception via motion) to core cognitive functions (e.g., working memory
maintenance, updating, gating, deletion; executive control; episodic long-term memory) to high-order, more complex processes (e.g., emotional memory, concept abstraction, creativity, consciousness). Our studies are conducted in healthy younger adults, healthy
older adults, and people with neurodegenerative disorders (mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease) and neuropsychiatric disorders (schizophrenia, obsessive compulsive disorder). The methods we employ are also wide-ranging, as listed above, and we lean
on our many collaborators when our research questions veer outside our core expertise (e.g., David Soto, consciousness; Andrew Budson, Alzheimer's disease; Matcheri Keshavan, schizophrenia; Sam Ling, fMRI low vision, to name a few). We seek individuals who
enjoy working on challenging problems with enthusiasm and creative rigor in a collaborative team-based environment. This position is open to both US citizens and foreign nationals. Start date is flexible.</span></div>
