</font><font face="Times New Roman" color="#000000">The Center for
Neuroimaging in Aging and Neurodegenerative Disease is actively
recruiting Research Technicians to support ongoing research. The
Center is located in Boston, a part of Massachusetts General Hospital,
and focuses on exploiting the capabilities of Magnetic Resonance
Imaging to establish novel biomarkers in aging and diseased brains and
to elucidate the neuropathology of neurodegenerative diseases
such as Huntington's and Alzheimer's. These positions are
particularly well-suited for candidates considering graduate studies,
especially in neurology, cognitive neuroscience, or medicine, but
desiring first an opportunity to do some hands-on, cutting-edge
research.<br>
