Dear Colleague,
We have Post-Doctoral Fellow and Research Assistant position openings in the Cognition and Action Lab at Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute.
Postdoctoral Position
The Cognition and Action Laboratory at Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute (MRRI), directed by Dr. Laurel Buxbaum, is inviting applications for a 2-3 year postdoctoral fellowship. The postdoctoral fellow will work on an NIH-funded study of tool use and tool action knowledge, particularly focusing on action competition and selection, which includes research on healthy and stroke populations using behavioral experiments, functional and structural neuroimaging, eyetracking, EEG, and TMS. Grant collaborators include Sharon Thompson-Schill, Ricarda Schubotz, Kara Federmeier, Gabriella Vigliocco, Branch Coslett, and Alex Martin. Applicants must have completed a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology, cognitive neuroscience, or a related field, have strong statistical, programming, and writing skills, and a demonstrated interest in functional neuroanatomic/computational approaches to action representation. Strong preference will be given to applicants who have MRI/fMRI data analysis expertise.
Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute is a supportive, stimulating academic environment offering many informal and didactic training opportunities, including close collaboration with colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania and Temple University, and is located near the vibrant city of Philadelphia. We offer competitive compensation, an attractive benefits plan including medical/dental/vision coverage, generous vacation time, and tuition reimbursement. See our laboratory website at http://www.mrri.org/focus-areas/cogn...ion-laboratory.
The target start date is between January 2017 and September 2017. Application review will continue until the position is filled. To apply, please email a cover letter detailing research interests and goals, CV, and 3 reference letters to Dr. Laurel Buxbaum (lbuxbaum@einstein.edu) with the header “Postdoctoral Fellowship in Cognition and Action”. Albert Einstein Healthcare Network is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
