open positions

Joining the group as a postdoc

I am seeking one postdoctoral fellow to work on developing statistical or machine learning methods for neuroimaging data. Postodoctoral fellowship opportunity is provided by the University of Toronto’s Data Science Institute [link], which has the application deadline of February 7, 2025. Students interested in applying should reach out potential supervisors about project availabilities, and it is encouraged to discuss with me as early as possible. An ideal background would be a Ph.D degree (or equivalent) in Statistics, Biostatistics, Computational Neuroscience, Quantitative Psychology, or related fields.

​Joining the group as a PhD student

There are two PhD openings for 2025. Prospective PhD students must apply directly to the graduate program by November 22, 2024 and indicate me as one of preferred supervisors. It is expected that applicants completed core statistics courses in probablity, math statistics, and applied statistics at minimum, and strong math or programming skills would be ideal.

If you have any inquiries, feel free to reach out to me by sending an email with the title “Prospective student” and your CV and unofficial transcript attached.

Note for prospective PhD students in Psychology

Please note that my current research program requires more training in quantitative fields (Statistics/Mathematics/CS) than what we usually expect from prospective PhD students in Psychology. It is recommended to read over my previous research before contacting me.

​Joining the group as a master’s or undergraduate student

Depending on project availabilities, I might have openings for paid research assistants. I currently do not consider unpaid volunteers, but please contact me if you’re interested in a reading course.
