<h2>Research Programmer, University of Southern California, Los
Angeles, USA</h2>
<br>
The
Department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Southern
California is seeking a research programmer to participate in the
development, distribution and support of software for functional brain
mapping. The programmer will be responsible for implementing software
for all phases of the analysis of magnetoencephalograpy (MEG) and
electroencephalography (EEG) data and its integration of other
functional and structural imaging modalities. The resulting software,
which will be developed under grant support from the National
Institutes of Health, will be distributed to researchers throughout the
US and the rest of the world, for analysis of data collected in
cognitive neuroscience and clinical research studies. This project will
be conducted under the supervision of Professor Richard Leahy in the
Department of Electrical Engineering and will involve close
collaboration with researchers at USC and other institutions.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Responsibilities</span><br>
<ul>
<li>Play a leading role in developing common workflow, data
structures, and file formats for use in analysis of MEG and EEG data.</li>
<li>Develop and document code to implement algorithms for analysis
and display of M/EEG data.</li>
<li>Development of procedures for automated testing of software and
software updates.</li>
<li>Develop and support procedures for distribution and documentation
of new software.</li>
<li>Participate in training of users</li>
<li>Participate
in research meetings and interact with PhD students, postdocs and
research faculty in Dr. Leahy's lab in the development of new
approaches to the analysis of MEG and EEG data.</li>
<li>Work with
collaborators who are also developing software to facilitate
interoperability between software packages with the ultimate goal of
producing a single software package for EEG and MEG data analysis.</li>
