Position Overview

Postdoctoral Researcher/Lab Scientist - Deep Phenotyping

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join our interdisciplinary neurophysiology lab focused on movement disorders. The role involves acquisition, processing, and analysis of electrophysiological and imaging data, application of machine learning, biomarker discovery, and collaboration with clinicians and students. Responsibilities also include grant writing, manuscript preparation, statistical analysis, and interpretation of results.

Salary range: $66,737-$82,836. The posted UC salary scales set the minimum pay determined by experience level.

Key Responsibilities
  • Collaborate in Electrophysiological Data Acquisition and Processing:
    Conduct and manage experiments involving TMS, EEG, EMG, and MRI in patients with movement disorders. Develop protocols for data acquisition, ensuring high-quality and reproducible results using appropriate filtering, artifact rejection, and preprocessing techniques.

  • Leading Role in Data Analysis and Machine Learning:
    Perform complex data analysis using statistical software such as Python, MATLAB, and/or R. Develop, maintain, and implement custom scripts for data acquisition, processing, and analysis as well as machine learning algorithms to classify and predict outcomes based on electrophysiological data. Perform statistical analysis on experimental data, ensuring the use of appropriate methods for hypothesis testing and interpreting results in the context of neurophysiology.

  • Collaborator in Biomarker Discovery, Research and Development:
    Engage in biomarker discovery projects using electrophysiological, neuroimaging, and other biological data to validate novel biomarkers associated with movement disorders. Collaborate with other researchers and clinicians to integrate biomarker findings into clinical practice.
