Postdoctoral Fellow

One post-doctoral position is available immediately within the Liu Lab for intracranial neurophysiology research studying the human neurophysiology of memory. The candidate will work with (1) surgical epilepsy patients in the acute care setting and (2) epilepsy patients with chronically implanted Neuropace RNS systems in the outpatient setting.  The fellow will (1) develop naturalistic and virtual cognitive paradigms in collaboration with the PI; (2) collect behavioral, eye tracking, pupillometry, and speech data from patients; (3) collect simultaneous SEEG with single unit recordings and RNS recordings; (4) analyze behavioral and neurophysiological data; and (5) present their findings at national conferences and manuscript format.  The candidate will benefit from the rich resources of the NYU School of Medicine, including the NYU Neuroscience Community and collaborate closely with a team of leading basic and cognitive neuroscientists and outstanding clinicians.

Qualifications: MD or Ph.D. in related field, such as basic or cognitive neuroscience, biomedical engineering. Demonstrated experience with electrophysiology, such as EEG (Scalp/iEEG/ECoG/SEEG), LFP, and/or single-unit / multi-unit recordings. Strong quantitative and computational skills, including proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or Julia (or related) for neural data analysis. Evidence of productivity, e.g., first-author publications in neuroscience, electrophysiology, cognitive science, machine learning, or related fields. Superior analytical and communication skills and ability to work effectively in a collaborative, multidisciplinary team (clinicians, neuroscientists, engineers).
