13 hours ago


Oslo, Oslo County, Norway University of Oslo Full time

About the Role

We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the University of Oslo to work on a research project focused on functional neurological disorder (FND), also known as conversion disorder.

Background

FND is a complex condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by symptoms such as paralysis, tremors, and seizures, which are not caused by any underlying medical condition. Despite its prevalence, the pathophysiology of FND remains poorly understood.

Research Objectives

The overall goals of this project are to provide new insights into the roles of the cerebral cortex and its connectivity with the thalamus in FND. We will achieve this by analyzing functional and structural brain MRI and EEG data, as well as clinical variables from individuals with FND.

Methodology

The patients with FND will undergo MRI at baseline, whereas clinical characterization will be performed at baseline and at follow-up after six months of standard clinical care. The successful candidate will analyze the neuroimaging data and/or clinical aspects of the study.

Requirements

Applicants should have experience with analysis of MRI or EEG data or clinical experience from neurology or psychiatry.

Benefits

This position offers a unique opportunity to work with a talented team of researchers and clinicians at the University of Oslo. The successful candidate will have access to state-of-the-art research facilities and equipment, as well as opportunities for professional development and networking within the field.
