The Department of Psychology at Brandeis University invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor position to begin in Fall 2014. The position includes an appointment to the Neuroscience Program and to the Volen National Center for Complex Systems.

The position is open to applicants working with human and/or non-human animals who have shown outstanding promise as a researcher and mentor. The successful applicant will join a vibrant research department with NIH training grants, entitled “Brain-Body-Behavior Interface in Learning and Development Across the Lifespan” and “Training in Cognitive Aging in a Social Context.” Teaching duties will include Psychology and Neuroscience courses. Applications, which should be submitted through AcademicJobsOnline at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/2877 should include a CV, research statement, teaching statement, copies of relevant publications, and three letters of recommendation. First consideration will be given to candidates whose applications are complete by October 1, 2013 although we will accept applications until the position is filled.
