The ideal candidate would have excellent English language skills, experience in the field of MR physics and neuroimaging, including prior knowledge of common software (e.g. SPM or FSL, Freesurfer, Matlab, Presentation).
Furthermore, skills in computational modeling of imaging and behavioral data are preferred.
Initial funding has been secured for 29 month with the option to expand the appointment Salary is commensurate with experience according to the German public service pay scale TV-L, which includes social benefits such as health care and pension plans.
