Duke University Department of
Psychology and Neuroscience
The
Neuroscience
of SPACE Laboratory
(https://people.duke.edu/~jmgroh/) at Duke University
seeks a full time Associate in Research to join the lab. The
Neuroscience of SPACE Lab’s research involves visual, auditory,
and multisensory processing in the brain using
neurophysiological and computational/statistical techniques.
Job duties include assisting in animal care involving
macaques (handling, training, overseeing health status) and
administrative responsibilities (ordering supplies, overseeing
compliance with IACUC regulations, backing up computers).
Applicants with an interest in participating in research
concerning how the brain represents/computes information related
to visual and auditory space will be a good fit for this
position.
A completed a bachelor’s degree in neuroscience, biology,
psychology or related quantitative field is required prior to
the start date (ideally August/September 2024). Previous
experience working with a mammalian species in a laboratory
setting is a plus.
The ideal candidate will have training in the domain of
neuroscience/psychology as well as some coursework in a
computational/quantitative subject area (such as statistics,
computer science, engineering, physics, or math), and be willing
to make a 2+ year commitment to the position. Previous holders
of this position have participated actively in the development
of research projects in the laboratory and have gone on to
graduate school in neuroscience.
I plan to start reviewing applications July 15 and
will continue until the position is filled - aiming for a start
date in Aug or Sept.
