Right now, we don’t have an opening for a Postdoc. However, if you already have funding or want to apply for some specific funding with me and believe that this lab is the right place for your training then please get in touch.
Q.
Do you know of any funding opportunities for postdocs in your lab?
There are several programs that may be of interest. First, the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences directorate at the National Science Foundation funds postdoctoral research fellowships called SPRF. The National Institutes of Health offer the NRSA post-doctoral fellowship for US citizens (Read) . You can apply for these while still a PhD student with me as a sponsor. These are prestigious post-doctoral fellowship that take several months of work, need a lot of planning, and require a high degree of independence from you. Getting one of them, however, is very prestigious and would put you on a very good path with regards to applying to faculty positions further down the line. The NYU Provost's office also funds several postdoctoral positions, particularly those that enhance diversity (read).
If you are an international student, there are several EU fellowships for doing a postdoctoral stay abroad. For instance, the Marie-Curie Global Postdoctoral Fellowships may be of interest to you.
Q.
What do you look for in a postdoc?
Generally, I look for postdocs that will help to expand the types of research we can do in the lab. I'm interested in someone with interesting ideas that can learn from the current expertise in the lab, bring a skill that we were missing, and that has a strong idea about how we could collaborate. Generally, I expect postdocs to be independent thinkers and to have substantial computational skills and some neuroimaging or computational modelling experience.
