[visionlist] Postdoc in infant visual attention and memory

[Steve Luck]

An NIH-funded postdoctoral position is available with Lisa Oakes, at the UC Davis Center for Mind & Brain. The position is part of a project aimed at understanding how visual attention and short-term memory are related across development in infancy. The postdoc will work with Lisa Oakes and Steve Luck collecting, analyzing, and publishing eye-movement and behavioral data related to the project aims.

Qualifications include a Ph.D. in Psychology and research experience broadly relevant to the project. Experience working with infant populations is preferred, but candidates with other relevant skills and no experience working with infants may be appropriate. The successful candidate will have some or all of the following: experience with behavioral and eye-tracking procedures with infants, technical skills in programming experiments  and analyzing data (matlab programming experience is particularly desirable), knowledge of visual cognition broadly defined.

The initial appointment is for 1 year, but the terms are negotiable and there may be funding for additional years depending on the success of the selected candidate in the position. Salary level will be commensurate with experience (general information about postdoctoral positions at UC Davis can be found at http://www.gradstudies.ucdavis.edu/postdocs/appointments.html). Send letter of interest, CV and names and phone numbers of three references to Dr. Lisa Oakes (lmoakes at ucdavis.edu).
