Research Specialist - Pittsburgh, United States - UPMC
Description
The Biological Affect Modulation (BAM) lab is devoted to understanding onset and recovery from emotional disorders, such as depression and anxiety, with a specific focus on developing new neuroscience-derived behavioral treatments, including real-time fMRI neurofeedback.
Using behavioral, physiological (EEG, galvanic skin response, heart rate, respiration), and functional imaging methods we seek to understand the physiological mechanisms of emotional information and autobiographical memory processing with the ultimate goal of developing techniques that allow individuals to modify these mechanisms directly (via real-time fMRI neurofeedback, for example).
We are seeking a Research Specialist that will be responsible for scheduling and running subjects with depression and borderline personality disorder through various fMRI and EEG protocols and maintaining contact through post study follow-up period.
