We are particularly interested in candidates with experience and interest in addressing questions about working memory using neuroimaging. Organizational skills and attention to detail are essential.

To be considered, all applicants must submit a cover letter/statement of research interests, a CV, transcript, and contact information for at least two references, all in PDF format. If you have any questions, please email Dr. Sreenivasan: kartik.sreenivasan@nyu.edu.
