The Department of Psychology wishes to hire a Research Associate at the Assistant Professor level for a four year term appointment contingent on grant funding, to begin no later than July 1, 2012.
We seek a talented individual to join our efforts in the areas of study that include cognitive and social neuroscience, specifically embodied cognition, interpersonal (dyadic) interactions, implicit cognition, psychological models of self-expansion, and electrical neuroimaging. The Research Associate will conduct research utilizing institutional resources, high-density electroencephalogram systems, and other available University sources, including studying embodied cognition for healthy populations and patients with acute and chronic social disorders. The position will require an independent thinker with the ability to efficiently and proficiently conduct research and collaborate with other team members. Demonstrated research excellence is essential. Method expertise in high-density electrical neuroimaging is required. The candidate should have experience with the design and execution of social and cognitive neuroscience research and in publishing research results, with a strong career-appropriate record of peer-reviewed publications. In addition to a substantive background in a relevant discipline, the ideal candidate will have substantial experience with estimating project and proposal costs. The candidate must have a Ph.D. in Psychology or a related discipline. Excellent oral and written communication skills and an aptitude for leading and working with project teams are required.
