Human Neuroscientist

About the Company

At Nudge, our mission is to develop the best technology for interfacing with the brain to improve people's lives. We are developing a non-invasive, ultrasound-based device that can stimulate and image the brain at high resolution and depth through a vertically integrated effort of hardware, software, and research.

Responsibilities

• Design, execute, and analyze ultrasound neuromodulation studies in humans
• Integrate data from observational, behavioral, neuroimaging, and neuromodulation methodologies into experimental design
• Translate insights from in vitro, animal, and engineering studies to human application
• Contribute to strategies for exploring novel targets for neuromodulation based on internal and external research
• Communicate scientific findings and results with engineering and other team members

Requirements

• PhD or postdoc in cognitive neuroscience, neuroengineering, or a similar science or engineering field
• Strong neuromodulation and neurophysiology first principles
• Experience with brain stimulation in humans, ideally with transcranial ultrasonic stimulation
• Exceptional proficiency in interventional data acquisition and analysis, including fMRI, behavioral, and physiological measurements
• Exceptional proficiency with statistical analysis
• Experience carrying out analyses in Python, R, and/or MATLAB
• Demonstrated history of exceptional technical contribution
• High integrity and strong professional judgement
