PhD Position in Neurochemical whole-brain mapping using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), University of Lübeck, Germany
Description : The Graduate School for Computing in Medicine and Life Sciences (http://www.gradschool.uni-luebeck.de/) at the University of Lübeck invites applications for a 3-year PhD scholarship. Application deadline: June 30, 2009. Project description: In this study, MRS measurements will be performed in healthy subjects in order to acquire a neurotransmitter distribution map of the brain using in-vivo MRS. Repeated measurements at 3 Tesla will be performed in the same subjects in order to address intra-individual and inter-individual variability. Spectrums will be acquired at a spatial resolution as high as 10 mm, using 10x10x10 mm as voxel size. GABA-Spectrums will be acquired using an additional sequence with GABA editing, as it is usually covered by other prominent peaks. Average concentration distributions will be projected onto a standard brain and visualised via colour codes, similar to that known from functional neuroimaging. The technique of whole-brain MRS mapping in healthy subjects will be used in subsequent basic neuroscience and clinical projects. Comparisons of healthy subjects and psychiatric patients as well as measurement of dynamic changes of the glutamate (and GABA) distribution due to pharmacological interventions will be based on image registration and analysis tools. Requirements: Candidates are expected to have a master’s degree (or its equivalent) in computer science, mathematics or engineering. Prior experiences in scientific publishing (during the university study or industry employment) are of advantage. Please prepare all the necessary documents and submit your application online: http://www.gradschool.uni-luebeck.de/?q=node/20.
