Job Announcement, July 2016: Postdoctoral Fellow
Haskins Laboratories, 300 George Street, Suite 900, New Haven CT 06511

Qualified individuals are invited to apply for a full-time Postdoctoral Fellow position in the Haskins Imaging Lab (http://www.haskins.yale.edu/hil/) at Haskins Laboratories. This position is supported by a new 5-year NIH grant on the cognitive neuroscience of language and reading development in children ages 6-12. Specifically, this project will use Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) alongside fMRI, EEG, and behavioral techniques to understand typical and atypical language development. The successful candidate will report to Project Co-Investigators Dr. Kenneth Pugh and Dr. Fumiko Hoeft, work closely with Director of Neuroimaging Research Dr. Einar Mencl and the Director of EEG research Dr. Nicole Landi, and be responsible for coordination of multimodal imaging, data analysis, journal article reporting, and supervision of Research Associates.
The successful candidate will join a team of researchers investigating the neural bases of speech, language and reading using data from fMRI, EEG/ERP, fNIRS, ultrasound, EMG and behavioral data from typical individuals, and individuals with language disorders. This candidate will have the opportunity to work on several projects on this grant, and to collaborate with researchers at Haskins, University of Connecticut and Yale University.

Minimum Qualifications
• Ph.D. in Psychology, Cognitive Science, Neuroscience, Communication Disorders, Linguistics, or related field
• Significant research in cognitive neuroscience of language
• Excellent interpersonal skills
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills

Preferred Qualifications
• Experience with fMRI/sMRI, MRS, EEG data collection and analysis
• Experience with experimental presentation software such as E-Prime or PsychoPy
• Experience working with children
• Data analysis and manipulation skills (e.g., Matlab, R, Python)

The initial appointment will be for one year, renewable after the first year. Interested applicants should contact Tammy Ursini, Administrative Coordinator (ursini@haskins.yale.edu) with cover letter, resume, copy of (unofficial) transcripts, and the names of three potential references. Please note “Job Posting 5016”, in the subject line of your email. This position will remain open until filled, with an anticipated start date in fall 2016. Compensation is commensurate with skills and experience.

Job Announcement, July 2016: Research Associate (2)
Haskins Laboratories, 300 George Street, Suite 900, New Haven CT 06511
Project Director: Dr. Kenneth Pugh

Qualified individuals are invited to apply for two full-time Research Associate positions at Haskins Laboratories. The successful candidates will join a team of researchers investigating the cognitive and neural bases of reading and language development using behavioral and neuroimaging data (fMRI, EEG and NIRS) in typically developing and language impaired children and adolescents.

We are accepting applications for two related positions:
1) Behavioral testing and coordination. This position will involve hands on collection of behavioral and neuroimaging data, including standardized assessments, with young children and adolescents. Applicants for this position must have experience working with young children.
2) Neuroimaging analysis and management. This position will involve both routine data manipulation and organization of neuroimaging data (MRI/fMRI, EEG, fNIRS), as well as assisting with development of new analysis strategies. Specific requirements for this position include strong computing skills (scripting, data management) and data analysis skills.

Requirements include:
• BA or BS in Psychology, Cognitive Science, Computer Science or related field
Additional relevant skills include:
• Experience with human research
• Experience administering standardized assessments
• Experience with neuroimaging
• Experience with experimental presentation software packages (e.g., E-PRIME, Presentation, PsychoPy)
• Experience with statistical analysis (e.g., SPSS, R, Matlab)
• Experience with data management software (e.g., FileMaker, Access, RedCap)

Interested applicants should contact Tammy Ursini, Administrative Coordinator (ursini@haskins.yale.edu) with cover letter, resume, copy of (unofficial) transcripts, and the names of three potential references. Please note “Job Posting 5015”, in the subject line of your email and also indicate which of the two positions you are interested in. These positions will remain open until filled, with an anticipated start date of September, 2016. Compensation is commensurate with skills and experience.
