Subject: [COGDEVSOC] Vanderbilt Univ. Faculty Positions; 1 in Cognitive
Development
To: "cogdevsoc@virginia.edu" <cogdevsoc@virginia.edu>


 One of the positions targets someone who does research in Cognitive
Development.  See ad for details.

The Vanderbilt University Department of Psychology and Human Development
has two tenure-line positions in the areas of *CLINCAL* and
*DEVELOPMENTAL*psychological science. The department is composed of
internationally
recognized scholars who work to increase the understanding and application
of basic psychological processes related to the development of typical and
atypical cognitions, behaviors, and emotions in family, school, and other
natural contexts. We seek candidates whose research addresses cross-cutting
themes in our department through interdisciplinary research focused on (1)
basic processes of cognitive, social, and emotional development, (2) the
implications of such basic research for learning, education, developmental
psychopathology, and developmental disorders, and (3) the translation of
basic findings to inform interventions designed to prevent or treat problems
of development, learning, mental health and physical well-being. Primary
responsibilities of these faculty positions include establishing an active
program of research, teaching and mentoring undergraduate and graduate
students, and service to the department, university, and the field. We
especially encourage applications from underrepresented minorities.

Our *Developmental Science Program* is seeking an outstanding developmental
scientist for a tenure track position at the assistant professor rank and
will consider candidates in any area of *cognitive development*. Our
program goal is to build on our strength in cognitive development by adding
a colleague whose research expands our range of expertise. Candidates whose
research focuses on learning processes and developmental mechanisms,
education and/or educational neuroscience, social cognition, and/or
adolescence will receive special consideration. The Developmental Sciences
area consists of 8-10 full-time faculty whose strengths are complemented by
professors in other units in the university, including the Department of
Psychology, Educational Neuroscience, Special Education, and Teaching &
Learning.****

The *Clinical Psychological Science Program* invites applications for a
tenure track Assistant Professor position in clinical psychological
science, with an emphasis in child/adolescent psychopathology. The
Vanderbilt Clinical Science Program is nationally recognized for research
on the etiology, treatment, and prevention of psychopathology,
developmental disorders, and health problems in children and adolescents.
We are interested in clinical researchers whose work focuses on the
interface of neurobiological processes (e.g., clinical neuroscience,
genetics, psychophysiology) with affective, cognitive, and behavioral
dimensions that underlie new and emerging models of psychopathology (e.g.,
Research Domain Criteria: RDoC) and has translational implications for
interventions, developmental psychopathology, developmental disorders,
developmental clinical neuroscience, or pediatric psychology. We seek an
individual with a strong record of high quality and methodologically
rigorous research, sustained productivity, potential for obtaining
extramural funding, and teaching effectiveness. A Ph.D. in Clinical
Psychology from an APA-accredited clinical program and completion of an
APA-accredited internship is required.

opportunities, see http://peabody.vanderbilt.edu/departments/psych/index.php

to 3 representative publications, a letter describing research and teaching
interests, and at least three letters of reference to:****
