The Child Development Laboratory at the University of Maryland, College
Park, (http://www.cdl.umd.edu) is searching for a postdoctoral fellow to
work on ongoing research related to temperament and the development of
psychopathology. The position is to begin Spring or Summer of 2020. This
position is for up to two years, with the possibility of an extension
depending on grant funding.

The postdoc will work on existing and new studies investigating behavioral
and electrophysiological correlates of cognitive control in relation to
temperament among young children, including the contribution of
individual-level factors such as attention and executive functions to the
continuity or discontinuity in temperament over time.  The lab draws on
multiple methods of inquiry including behavioral responses, questionnaires,
and electrophysiology. The successful candidate will primarily be
responsible for analyzing EEG and ERP data from high-density EGI systems,
writing scientific papers and participating in the intellectual life of the
lab. Other duties will include working with research assistants and
graduate and undergraduate students.

Position qualifications include a PhD in psychology, cognitive
neuroscience, or a related field; experience with EGI high density systems
for ERP and EEG acquisition and analysis; strong experimental and
statistical skills; ability to work independently and in a team environment
on multiple tasks and projects and to share one’s expertise with and train
others. Experience with software programs (MATLAB, EEGLAB or other relevant
programs), programming tasks (E-prime, Presentation), and statistical
analysis (SPSS, R) is highly desired. Excellent scientific writing skills
are also desired.

Please address questions or send a letter of research interests, a CV, and
contact information for three references to Nathan Fox (fox at umd.edu) and
Jamie Listokin (listokin at umd.edu). Applications will be considered on a
rolling basis until the position is filled.
