Applicants should have a PhD, MD, or the equivalent, and advanced training and experience with MEG methods, instrumentation and neuroscience applications. They should also have an established track record in obtaining research funding, teaching and working in a collaborative multi-disciplinary environment. The new recruit will be expected to establish and lead the MEG laboratory and to develop a successful research program of basic and clinical neuroscience.
