The Institute of Science and Technology for Brain-inspired Intelligence at Fudan University is looking to solve the problem of identifying early markers for neural processes that predict psychopathology and allow for targeted early interventions.
Requirements
- Experience in analysing multimodal –omics (e.g. genetic, gene expression, epigenetics) and/or neuroimaging (fMRI, structure MRI and DTI) data;
- Experience and/or interest in behavioural imaging genetics and epigenetics.
- Evidence of the ability to publish in high-impact scientific journals
- Very good English language skills.
- State of the art methodology, including stratification and prediction techniques, deep learning and various sparse representational techniques
Responsibilities
- Take a leading role in the analysis of multimodal –omics data (e.g. epigenetics and MRI radiomics) and their relation to behavioural measures.
- Apply statistical techniques to dimensionality reduction and prediction using –omics, neuroimaging and environmental data
- The publication and dissemination of data arising from this project
- Attend and present at academic meetings and contribute to the visibility of the project and its aims.
- Work as a conscientious and committed member of the team in order to achieve the aims of the project
- Liaise with the administrative team for the support of the project
- Undertake any other reasonable duties that may be relevant to the role outline
