Opening for a Full-Time Research Assistant
The Clinical Neuroscience Laboratory at the Department of Psychology at
Ohio State University is seeking applications for a full-time research
assistant position with funding for two years, contingent on
performance. The laboratory is currently conducting several randomized
controlled trials, designed to look at the effects of lifestyle
interventions, such as mindfulness training and exercise intervention in
improving cognitive and emotional control in older adults and in
individuals with neurodegenerative disorders. We employ both behavioral
and functional MRI techniques to better understand the behavioral and
neural correlates of these interventions. This position is designed for
individuals who are interested in building on the research experience
that they already have and learn about the new field of health
neuroscience. Applications are solicited from individuals with
considerable programming experience, as well as experience in
neuroimaging data analyses. Knowledge of matlab and an existing software
package, such as FSL, AFNI, or SPM is required. For more information
