talented postdoctoral scholar with prior expertise in EEG and an interest
in conducting cutting-edge research at the intersection of clinical
psychology and developmental neuroscience. The primary focus of this
position is to collaborate on an ongoing, multi-site Randomized Controlled
Trial assessing attention bias modification training as a treatment for
pediatric social anxiety, with a focus on EEG markers of attention and
cognitive control as the key targets. This NIMH-funded study reflects a direct
collaboration between FIU and Yale University. Located within an
international, multicultural urban setting, the Center for Children and
Families, a Preeminent Program at FIU, and the Department of Psychology,
ranked 4th in the country for research funding, offer a stimulating
research environment full of collaborative and networking opportunities.



The position involves implementing high-density EEG, eye-tracking, managing
data collection, analysis, and preparing manuscripts. Prior expertise in
EEG data collection and ERP-based analyses are a requirement for this
position. However, experience implementing EEG in the context of
clinical/developmental research is not a requirement, although preference
will be given to candidates with a background in these areas. Similarly,
prior experience in programming (MATLAB, R, and/or Python) is strongly
preferred but is not a requirement for this position. Opportunities to
engage, or train, in time-frequency and/or source localization EEG methods
are also readily available as part of this position.

The candidate will be mentored in leading independent research projects
including grant applications and publishing with a highly productive
research team. The close partnership and integration between the FIU and
Yale sites allow for unique opportunities for professional development and
interdisciplinary training. The breadth of training experiences will be
useful for a variety of academic career paths. The applicant must have a
Ph.D. in a relevant domain of Psychology (Developmental, Clinical, or
Social Psychology, for instance), Neuroscience, or related field by the
time the position begins (although strong applicants who are ABD, but close
to defense may be considered). The position is currently open and the
initial position duration is for at least 2 years. Please contact Dr.
Jeremy Pettit at jpettit at fiu.edu and Dr. George Buzzell at gbuzzell at fiu.edu
<besuther at fiu.edu> and include a CV and names of references in the cover
letter.
