University of California, Irvine is looking to recruit a postdoctoral researcher in cognitive science with a strong background in fMRI and computational modeling. The position is announced by Aaron Bornstein, Associate Professor in Cognitive Sciences and Fellow at the Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory.

The research environment appears to sit at the intersection of neuroscience, psychology, and psychiatry, making it a good fit for candidates interested in brain-based and clinically relevant research questions. The post specifically notes that prior experience with fMRI and computational modeling is required, while interest in psychiatry is desired.

Funding is strong: the fellowship provides three years of salary plus independent travel and equipment funds. This suggests a well-supported postdoc with room for research development and conference activity.

To apply, candidates should prepare a CV and 2–3 manuscripts (preprints are acceptable) and follow up through the contact route implied by the post. No deadline is stated in the post.
