> A postdoctoral fellowship is available immediately in the Language  
> Section,
> NIDCD, NIH Intramural Program, Bethesda, MD
>
> Our section conducts multimodal imaging studies of language  
> processing using
> hemodynamic (fMRI, PET), radiotracer (PET) and electrophysiological  
> (EEG,
> MEG) techniques.
>
> An ideal candidate would have experience with one or more of these  
> methods
> and/or computational methods used in the analysis of the data they  
> provide,
> and a strong interest in using these methods to study brain-language
> relationships
>
> Instrumentation available to our Section at The NIH Clinical Center  
> includes
> a 3T GE MRI instrument, GE Advance PET scanners, 275 channel CTF  
> MEG and
> Neuroscan EEG/ERP systems, as well as animal imaging facilities  
> using MRI,
> CT, PET and electrophysiological methods.

> The present position would be dedicated to studies of recovery in  
> aphasia –
> evaluating and modeling the natural history, and long term  
> neuroplastic
> reorganization and repair in this disorder - or other studies of

> and brain.
>
> The Language Section is a cooperative environment in which there is an
> opportunity to interact with postdoctoral fellows, graduate  
> students and
> technicians with a wide range of interests and skills.
>
> A PhD or MD degree is required.  Knowledge of fMRI or MEG and any  
> experience
> in using these methods to evaluate brain language relationships is
