Post-Doctoral Fellowships in Translational Neuroscience and Neurorehabilitation

Three year T32 fellowship available within the Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute (MRRI), in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania (Penn), for research training in cognitive (neuro)science and (neuro)rehabilitation. Available mentors and their fellows conduct federally funded research in areas ranging from basic cognitive neuroscience to applied assessment and treatment research. Research emphases include theories of normal and abnormal processing, theory-driven and naturalistic assessment methods, modulation of plasticity and learning mechanisms, and treatment trials in both traumatic brain injury and stroke. Areas of focus include attention/executive function, language, action planning, motor learning, and consciousness, using approaches that combine behavioral, imaging, electrophysiologic, and electrical and pharmacologic neuromodulation methods. Trainees will train with a primary mentor at either Penn or MRRI, with collaborative mentorship from others in the training program.  See http://mrri.org/jobs-and-opportunities for a complete listing of mentors and their areas of research.
