data, Allen Brain Atlas etc.) with a goal of characterizing genomic and
behavioral factors related to brain structure and functional network
architecture.

*Minimum  Qualifications*
Masters degree in computer science, neuroscience, psychology, data science,
biomedical informatics, statistics/biostatistics or related fields and/or a
