   We seek a research assistant for a joint lab manager position across two
labs at the Department of Psychology at Northwestern University (Prof. Joan
Chiao and Prof. Steve Franconeri). Studies involve behavioral, fMRI, and
ERP studies of social/cultural neuroscience and visual cognition. The
responsibilities include assisting in subject recruitment and running,
performing maintenance on laboratory equipment, data analysis, and training
and supervising undergraduate students. The position is ideal for a recent
undergraduate who wishes to experience neuroscience research prior to
applying to graduate or medical school, and provides a unique opportunity
to experience two broad programs of research.

   Candidates should have an undergraduate degree in Psychology,
Neuroscience, Biology or related fields, familiarity and ease with
computers and strong organizational and interpersonal skills. Expertise
with programming, prior independent research experience, and/or statistics
is strongly desirable.

   The laboratory is part of Northwestern University's Psychology
Department. We are particularly committed to maintaining a strongly
interactive and collaborative atmosphere among different laboratories.
