PhD Fellowship in Memory and Task-Based Functional Imaging (fMRI)

The Center for Lifespan Changes in Brain and Cognition (LCBC) at the University of Oslo is seeking a PhD candidate to join their active research environment. The successful applicant will work with the 'Lifespan Memory Imaging' project, which utilizes a unique longitudinal fMRI dataset to study episodic memory across the lifespan. The research focuses on identifying neural mechanisms that predict memory decline or maintenance in aging populations. The candidate will analyze existing fMRI data alongside multimodal imaging and neuropsychological assessments to contribute to our understanding of brain and cognitive optimization.

• Analyze existing longitudinal fMRI datasets to identify neural mechanisms of memory change.
• Integrate fMRI findings with multimodal imaging data such as DTI, PET, and ASL.
• Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of researchers, engineers, and data scientists.
• Contribute to the scientific output of the Lifespan Memory Imaging project.
• Participate in the academic activities and seminars of the LCBC research center.
