The Rotman Research Institute (RRI) is a premier international centre for the study of human brain function.

This fellowship is supervised by

The fellowship offers ample opportunity for manuscript preparation and conference attendance in the field of cognitive neuroscience and collaborations both within the institute and with other researchers in Toronto. The fellow will work with large open access databases including the Alzheimer's Disease Initiative (ADNI) and the Canadian Consortium on Neurodegeneration in Aging (CCNA) as well as data collected by the Olsen lab.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Experimental design, data collection and analysis, manuscript preparation
  • Structural and functional neuroimaging with an emphasis on the medial temporal lobes and connections to the neocortex
