We are actively recruiting a graduate student under the supervision of Dr. Jamie Feusner through the University of Toronto's Institute of Medical Sciences program.
The lab focuses on various obsessive-compulsive and related disorders including obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), and anorexia nervosa (AN). The primary focus of the student will be on studies on AN. We use multiple behavioural, physiological, and neuroimaging-based methods to investigate how those with AN acquire positive and negative associations, how they diminish, and their relationships to physiology (heart rate and pupil responses) and brain activation. We will also use machine learning to ascertain whether learning can be predicted by physiological and neural biomarkers in these populations.
The ideal candidate will have an interest in anorexia nervosa research. Experience/publication record in neuroimaging and skills in Linux, R, Python, and/or statistical analysis skills.
Please send your CV, research statement (1-2 pages) or cover letter that describes your research experience, academic transcript, and outline why you would be a good fit for the lab to Dr. Jamie Feusner: jamie.feusner@utoronto.ca
