WHO WE ARE
At IIT we work enthusiastically to develop human-centered Science and Technology to tackle some of the most pressing societal challenges of our times and transfer these technologies to the production system and society. Our Genoa headquarter is strictly inter-connected with our 11 center around Italy and two outer-stations based in the US for a truly interdisciplinary experience.
YOUR TEAM
You will’d be working in a multicultural and multi-disciplinary group, where experts in chemistry, material science, physics, biotechnology, physiology, psychology, data analysis and electronic engineering collaborate, each with their own expertise, to carry out common research.
The Multiscale Brain Communication Research Unit is coordinated by Prof. Luciano Fadiga, who has extensive experience in Neurophysiology.
The research focuses on studying the mechanisms by which the brain processes and understands the communicative behaviors of other individuals. This includes the study of sensorimotor communication, in healthy participants, by means of non-invasive neurophysiological methods.
In the PNRR BLBC Project, where this position is opened, the IIT team will manufacture a device capable to collect small electrical signals in wet environment with high signal-to noise ratio and fine spatial localization. This will be achieved by endowing recording sites with conductive polymeric coating. The device will be validated in vivo in neurosurgical contexts. The final aim will be the development of novel paradigms for electrophysiological mapping of brain lesion borders.
Within the team, your main responsibilities will be:
- Analysis of microepicorticography data collected during the clinical trial of EPIBRAIN devices developed during BLBC;
- Search for new electrophysiological fingerprints suitable for discriminating healthy tissue from diseased tissue, also in conjunction with molecular neurobiology data collected during BLBC.
WHAT WOULD MAKE YOU SHINE
- A degree in Medicine
- Documented experience on the conduction of electrophysiological experiments with human subjects
- The ability to properly report and organize research data
- Good command in spoken and written English
- Deep knowledge of brain stimulation/recording, both via invasive and non-invasive means;
- Advanced data analysis skills with large datasets, also by means of programming languages such as MATLAB, Python, et similia
- Good communication skills
- Strong problem solving attitude
- High motivation to learn
- Spirit of innovation and creativity
- Good in time and priority management
- Ability to work in a challenging and international environment
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a highly interdisciplinary environment
- Competitive salary package for international standards Wide range of staff discounts
-
