Research Scientist (93321)

The Human Motor Control and Neuromodulation Lab is part of the Stanford Movement Disorders Center within the Department of Neurology and Neurological Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine. We are seeking an experienced, full-time research scientist to join a dynamic and fun diverse group of the Principle Investigator, post-doctoral fellows, graduate students and research assistants.

The goal of the research in the laboratory is to understand the pathophysiology of movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. At Stanford, innovations in neural interface technology have allowed us to discover how abnormal electrical brain activity contributes to disorders in movement. In the Human Motor Control and Neuromodulation Lab, the first decoding of electrical activity in deep brain structures during abnormal movement in Parkinson’s disease patients was performed using novel and investigative sensing neurostimulators. Our team has deconstructed brain activity to discover the neural code responsible for the abnormality of walking in Parkinson’s disease, and can predict debilitating freezing events that can cause falls, significant morbidity, and even death. This has enabled us to reverse engineer brain circuitry and restore movement in Parkinson’s disease using the first closed loop, demand-based brain pacemakers that respond to neural and kinematic markers of movement impairment.

The position involves assisting the Principal Investigator with directing research, writing grants, human subject interaction and testing, organization and analysis of electrophysiological and kinematic data, and publication of results. Projects include investigation of novel closed loop deep brain stimulation based on neural and kinematic biomarkers in Parkinson’s disease, discovery of neural biomarkers of behavior and motor symptoms from local field potentials (LFPs), quantification of behavior via wearables, and characterization of the cognitive-motor syndrome using behavioral and neuroimaging analysis for a new neurostimulation target. The desired candidate is a self-motivated, independent worker who is interested in facilitating the development of new research avenues in the areas of Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders. The ideal candidate would have a PhD in neuroscience, engineering (neuro, biomedical, mechanical, electrical), or a similar field with a strong quantitative background, as well as post-doctoral or similar post-graduate experience. Previous experience in deep brain stimulation, motor control, gait, kinematics, neuroimaging, and/or movement disorders is a plus.

The current position offers an exceptional opportunity for a motivated and intellectually curious individual to participate in rewarding and cutting-edge research in human motor control and neurophysiology in Parkinson’s disease.

Research Assistant (96233)

The Department of Neurology and Neurological Sciences seeks a full-time Life Science Research Professional (LSRP) to work in a laboratory whose primary focus is the discovery of mechanisms of epileptogenesis and cognitive impairment in pediatric epilepsy. The LSRP will be primarily responsible for multiple aspects of lab management including: mouse colony maintenance; maintaining laboratory supply inventory and ordering; coordinating lab safety and university compliance; training new members and maintaining lab protocols and online wiki; and supporting and assisting in the lab’s scholarly research efforts.

Research Assistant (97658)

Stanford University is seeking a Research Assistant (Life Science Research Professional 1) to perform basic functions and activities involved in defined research projects, and independently conduct and analyze experiments.

We are seeking a full time Research Assistant (Life Science Research Professional 1) to join the Buckwalter Laboratory in the Department of Neurology at Stanford University. The LSRP1 will work in a small, welcoming, and supportive group studying mouse models of pediatric stroke. The LSRP1 will aid in the investigation of differences in the neuroimmune response to stroke between juvenile and adult responses to stroke, and how this affects long term cognitive outcomes. Experience with mouse handling/animal behavior and/or immunohistochemistry is highly desirable. Experience with flow cytometry, myelin biology or lymphocyte biology, and RNA sequencing are desirable. The job would entail performance of independent research as well as 5-10% effort on lab management tasks that are shared across all lab members. Excellent communication and collaborative skills and a two-year commitment are essential.

Research Assistant, 2 Year Fixed Term (97711)

The Human Motor Control and Neuromodulation Lab is part of the Stanford Movement Disorders Center within the Department of Neurology and Neurological Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine.  We are seeking an experienced, full-time research assistant to join a dynamic and fun diverse group of post-doctoral fellows, graduate students, research scientists, and research assistants. This is a 2-year position.

Clinical Research Coordinator for Large Neuroimaging Study of Aging and Alzheimer’s disease (95296)

The Mormino Laboratory within the Department of Neurology and Neurological Sciences is seeking a Data Analyst I to work on large scale neuroimaging harmonization efforts to understand Alzheimer’s disease pathology in human aging and neurological diseases. These projects reflect multisite efforts to curate and harmonize imaging data to enable large data efforts in the national Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) program along with the Alzheimer’s Disease Sequencing Project Harmonization Consortium (ADSP-HC). Our research is focused on improving the diagnosis and monitoring of disease, enabling early detection, and understanding the contributions of early pathology to cognitive decline in human aging. Main duties include the curation and analysis of large multisite retrospective MRI and PET imaging data.

In addition to submitting your on-line CV, include a cover letter describing your prior experience with neuroimaging research.

Data Management Specialist (97638)

Stanford University is seeking a Research Data Analyst 2 to manage and analyze large amounts of information, typically technical or scientific in nature, independently with minimal supervision.

The Lee Lab at Stanford University uses interdisciplinary approaches from molecular biology, medical imaging, signal processing, and genetics to analyze and manipulate preclinical systems-level brain circuits.  Our ultimate goal is to understand the connectivity and function of these circuits to drive innovation of new therapies for neurological diseases.

We are seeking a data management specialist who will organize and document large sets of (primarily MR imaging) data and relevant metadata.  An important task will be to curate, organize, and document a large number of past archived MRI datasets which will be used for future analysis.  The ideal candidate will be collaborative, organized, and able to multitask.
