Seeking a Research Assistant to work on an NIH-funded project studying the

to understand the neural bases of perceptual development. A qualified

and/or human development, and good organizational, computer (Mac), and
communication skills. Willingness to sing baby songs and make farm animal
noises to entertain infant observers is also desirable.
Duties will include data collection (including interactions with infants
and their parents), subject recruitment and scheduling, some data analysis
and graphical presentation, and general lab organization. This job will
offer excellent research training and experience for an individual who
plans to pursue future graduate studies.

University of Massachusetts Medical School, and is located in a pleasant
wooded area of Waltham, a 15-minute drive from Cambridge and Boston. The
