    The USC Mark and Mary Stevens Neuroimaging and Informatics Institute and Laboratory of Neuro Imaging (INI, www.ini.usc.edu) are world leaders in the development of advanced computational and scientific approaches for the comprehensive mapping of brain structure and function. LONI’s unique multidisciplinary environment and cutting edge resources allow for integration of clinical, psychological and genotypic information with neuroimaging phenotypes for research questions in neurology, psychiatry and developmental neurobiology.

     

    The Imaging Genetics Center (http://igc.ini.usc.edu) in Marina del Rey, California is looking for talented full-time Project Assistant to perform research including analysis of brain images. The 30-member team at IGC is the hub of the ENIGMA project (http://enigma.ini.usc.edu/), which integrates brain imaging data from 185 institutions around the world. We are actively involved in some of the largest-ever brain imaging studies of diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, HIV/AIDS, schizophrenia, depression, bipolar illness, and Parkinson’s disease, studying brain scans from thousands of patients. We also lead or participate in numerous studies of normal development, genetics, traumatic brain injury, and brain connectivity. Our laboratory writes and applies novel computational algorithms to study how major psychiatric and neurological diseases affect brain structure, function, and connectivity.
