POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER, INFANT LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT LABORATORY,
UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO

The Woodward Laboratory at the University of Chicago seeks a postdoctoral
researcher to design and implement research projects to study the neural
and cognitive systems that support social cognitive development in infants
and young children. The postdoctoral researcher will work on a multi-site
collaborative project investigating the neural correlates of social
cognitive development, the social-cognitive consequences of action learning
and social collaboration in infants, and the longitudinal relations between
infant neural and cognitive responses to others’ actions and later-emerging
social abilities. The postdoctoral fellow will interface with collaborators
in the labs of Nathan Fox and Elizabeth Redcay at the University of
Maryland, Helen Tager-Flusberg at Boston University, and Pier Ferrari at
the Institut des Sciences Cognitives Marc Jeannerod, CNRS.  This active
collaboration creates the opportunity to work closely with colleagues
across these groups.

The postdoctoral researcher will participate in all aspects of research
management, development and implementation.  He/she will oversee design,
data collection, coding and analysis for behavioral and EEG studies with
infants. He/she will maintain data storage systems in the laboratory, and
liaise with other projects and collaborators for data sharing and analysis.
He/she will oversee the work of research assistants, prepare manuscripts
for publication and present research findings at scientific conferences.

A doctoral degree is required in psychology, cognitive science, or a
relevant field. Expertise in EEG methods is required, with experience using
these methods with infants and children strongly preferred. Experience
supervising and coordinating the work of assistants and strong project
management skills are preferred.

The position is open immediately and will remain open until the position is
filled.  Interested candidates should send a CV, a research statement and
the names of two references to:
