Job description

Assistant/Associate Professor – The Mind Research Network (MRN)

The Mind Research Network (MRN), in partnership with Lovelace Biomedical Research Institute (LBRI), invites applications for a faculty position in translational neuroscience. The successful candidate will join a team of outstanding investigators who are eager to shape the future of translational neuroscience through collaborative, high-impact research that advances the understanding, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of brain and behavioral disorders.

Recruitment is focused on exceptional investigators at the advanced assistant professor or associate professor level, although appointment and rank will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.

This recruitment coincides with the installation of a new MEGIN TRIUX neo magnetoencephalography (MEG) system, further expanding MRN’s world‑class neuroimaging capabilities. The TRIUX neo complements MRN’s research‑dedicated Siemens Prisma 3T MRI, research‑dedicated mobile MRI program, and advanced neuro‑informatics resources, creating an exceptional environment for innovative, multimodal translational neuroscience research.

We seek an innovative, collaborative investigator with an established or emerging independent research program who will leverage MRN’s advanced neuroimaging infrastructure, multidisciplinary research community, and strategic partnerships to build a nationally recognized translational neuroscience program.

The successful candidate will join a highly collaborative scientific community where research spans advanced neuroimaging, computational neuroscience, biomarker discovery, mechanistic neuroscience, clinical investigation, and nonclinical model systems. Close collaborations across MRN, Lovelace Biomedical Research Institute, and the University of New Mexico create unique opportunities to integrate human neuroimaging with mechanistic studies, biomarker discovery, and clinical research while developing innovative, high‑impact collaborative programs.
