The Harvard Business School invites applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Computer Laboratory for Experimental Research (CLER). The CLER is a central resource for conducting experimental and human subjects research at HBS, and serves approximately 25 faculty researchers each year, supporting research in fields such as decision making, experimental economics, marketing, organizational behavior, and strategy.

Previous CLER Postdoctoral Fellows have had the opportunity to collaborate with HBS faculty including Teresa Amabile, Max Bazerman, Amy Cuddy, Francesca Gino, and Michael Norton.
The Postdoctoral Fellow serves as a liaison between researchers who use the CLER lab and the staff who support the lab to ensure successful operation of experiments at HBS. This includes:
• Working with researchers to design, develop, program, and refine experiments;
• Ensuring the successful running of specific experiments and the overall operation of the lab;
• Supporting or conducting experiments using psychophysiological approaches such as eye-tracking, facial expressions analysis, skin conductance;
• Working with researchers and programmers to identify the best short- and long-term technical solutions for programming experiments;
• Developing and expanding experimental infrastructure;
• Implementing projects which enhance HBS research capabilities;
• Evaluating and monitoring the quality of the CLER subject pool and developing strategies to improve subject recruitment and participation; and
• Keeping abreast of evolving technologies and methodologies in the field of experimental research, worldwide.
The Postdoctoral Fellow is expected to spend 60% of his or her time in support of the CLER and 40% on his or her own research, which may be in collaboration with other CLER researchers. He or she reports to the Director of Research Computing Services, in the Division of Research and Faculty Development (DRFD), and works closely with the other members of the CLER team, which includes a manager of research operations, a programmer, a subject pool administrator, and a lab technician.
