Dr. Jennifer Kim- Yale Neurology Postgraduate Clinical Research Associate Application
Dr. Kim is recruiting a research associate to join her critical care neurophysiology group. We are interested in all aspects of the management of patients with brain trauma and other acute neurologic injuries, novel biomarkers and imaging techniques for brain injury, neurologic outcome assessments, and more.
Primary roles of the research associate will include:
• Involvement in ongoing clinical research projects, including data collection, preprocessing and computational analysis
• Opportunities for grant writing, abstract and manuscript preparation, and to present at conferences.
Research associates will gain extensive clinical experience by interacting with critically ill patients in the Neurosciences ICU and working collaboratively with the medical team. You are welcome and encouraged to attend department conferences, lectures, and rounds.
This position is for 1-2 years. The ideal candidates would be highly motivated, have a strong academic record, an interest in the neurosciences and strong analysis skills (using MATLAB, Python, etc). Prior experience in biologic signal processing, especially electroencephalography (EEG) data, spectral analysis and machine learning methods would be highly valued. Alternatively, prior experience with neuroimaging analysis (Freesurfer, tractography, fMRI) would also be highly valued. Applications will be reviewed on a first come, first serve basis and strong candidates will be invited to interview. Both undergraduate and Master’s degree graduates are welcome to apply.
