UvA - University of Amsterdam
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Do you want to help understand autism from a new perspective? We're looking beyond group averages to discover how each individual's brain functions differently. Our project combines extensive brain imaging data with advanced analytical methods to reveal unique patterns that standard approaches miss. If you're skilled in neuroimaging analysis and passionate about making a meaningful contribution to autism research, we'd love to have you join our team.
The Dutch Autism & ADHD Research Center is looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join an innovative project focused on precision functional imaging in autism. This project breaks away from traditional large-sample approaches to study fewer individuals in unprecedented detail, leveraging an already collected rich dataset to better understand individual brain differences in autism.
What are you going to do
- Analyze a uniquely extensive neuroimaging dataset (90 minutes of functional MRI per participant across multiple sessions and conditions, detailed structural and diffusion-weighted data) to characterize individual differences in functional brain organization in autism;
- Prepare high-quality scientific publications and present findings at international conferences;
- Contribute to teaching (0.2 FTE), including research project supervision and teaching of research skills.
What do you have to offer
- A PhD in neuroscience, psychology, computer science, or a related field;
- Peer-reviewed publications based on methods such as functional connectivity analysis, brain network analysis, or machine learning;
- Excellent scientific writing and communication skills in English;
- Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively within an interdisciplinary team;
- Enthusiasm for teaching.
