- In coordination with the Assistant Director, develop and optimise imaging protocols for the users by designing paradigms and tasks for functional MRI studies
- Perform image analysis and postprocessing using neuroimaging softwares such as SPM, CONN, BrainVoyager, EEGlab and NIRSlab, etc
- Apply programming skills in E-Prime, MATLAB, PsychoPy and Python for stimulus presentation and data analysis
- Conduct statistical analysis using software such as SPSS, R or Python to support data interpretation and research findings
- Collaborate with and provide technical support to Principal Investigators in experimental design, data processing and grant proposal development, in consultation with the Assistant Director
- Guide and mentor students (PhD, URECA, scholarly projects and attachments) and train staff in neuroimaging data acquisition and analysis
- Contribute to CoNiC’s mission by developing new methodologies, harmonising protocols and implementing best practices across projects
- Conduct independent research and publish findings in peer-reviewed scientific journals
- Prepare technical documentation, progress reports, assist with grant applications and support patent-related submissions where applicable
Requirements
- PhD in Computer Science, Cognitive Neuroscience, Life Sciences, Engineering or a related field
- Minimum 3 - 5 years of hands-on experience in neuroimaging research, particularly in MRI/EEG/fNIRS data acquisition, postprocessing and analysis
- Proven expertise in MRI postprocessing pipelines, experience with other modalities (e.g., MEG, EEG, fNIRS, TMS) is an added advantage
- Proficiency in programming languages and tools relevant to neuroimaging (MATLAB/Python) is essential
