Support for South American researchers

LogoIBRO2 (1) SDN-Logo-100x67

 

 

 

The French Neuroscience Society, jointly with PERC-IBRO, offers support to a certain number of young South American researchers willing to attend the 12th meeting of the French Neuroscience Society, which will take place in Montpellier, in May 2015, and to visit French laboratories to find a post-doctoral position in France.

The candidates must currently live in Argentina, Brazil, Chile or Uruguay. They must be advanced students in their last year of their PhD program or young non-tenured researchers having obtained their PhD degree in the field of Neuroscience, in the last two years.
Previous to their arrival in France, the applicants are requested to contact at least two French laboratories for visiting appointments. The support is contingent upon proof of attendance at the meeting and confirmation of visit appointments by the French laboratories.

The following materials must be attached (please use PDF files):

  • A curriculum vitae in English (or French) which should include: the research interests, the provisional or effective year of defense and title of the thesis, publications, congresses /workshops / courses attended indicating presentation type (oral or poster), prizes and grants received as well as current position,
  • A copy of the invitation letters and/or confirmation of visiting appointments by French laboratories,
  • A personal motivation letter,
  • A recommendation letter from the supervisor.

Applications must be submitted online.

Charla: “Spatio-temporal dynamics of the sensory processing dysfunction in Schizophrenia” – Dra. Antigona Martinez

Laboratorio de Psiquiatría Traslacional (Clínica Psiquiátrica Universitaria, ICBM), Instituto de Neurociencias Biomédicas (BNI)

se complacen en invitar a la charla titulada:

“Spatio-temporal dynamics of the sensory processing dysfunction in Schizophrenia”

 Dr. Antígona Martínez
Department of Psychiatry, Columbia University, USA.

Viernes 9 de Enero a las 11:30 horas
Auditorio Armando Roa, Sector G, Clínica Psiquiátrica Universitaria.
Av. La Paz 1003, Recoleta, Santiago.

Dr. Martinez is an expert in the field of brain imaging and cognition. Her research over the past 15 years has provided fundamental insights into the basic brain mechanisms of attention and perception, and more recently into abnormalities of sensory brain function in schizophrenia patients.  Dr. Martinez utilizes both electrophysiological and hemodynamic approaches to investigate brain function, combining recordings of event-related brain potentials with functional magnetic resonance imaging so that both the time course and anatomical substrates of sensory and perceptual processes can be visualized within the same experimental context.  Her recent studies have demonstrated how different forms of selective attention (spatial, feature-based, object-based) are implemented at different levels of the extrastriate visual cortex and have shown that the magnocellular and parvocellular visual pathways play distinctive roles in attention.  Dr. Martinez is currently applying these basic approaches to the analysis of sensory deficits in schizophrenia.
