[visionlist] Tenure track position, University of Pennsylvania

[David Brainard]

The Department of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor appointment in basic psychological processes to begin July 1, 2013 at the earliest. We are particularly interested in scientists who study one or more of the areas of perception, attention, learning, and memory in humans or other animals. In addition, scientists whose research includes methods drawn from the subfields cognitive neuroscience, systems neuroscience, and/or computational modeling will be attractive. The successful candidate is expected to establish an externally funded research program and participate in undergraduate and graduate teaching. Applications should be submitted on-line at facultysearches.provost.upenn.edu/applicants/Central?quickFind=51086 and include a curriculum vitae, research statement, and the contact information for three individuals who will be contacted by the University with instructions on how to submit a letter of recommendation. Review of applications will begin October 15, 2012 and will continue until the position is filled. 

The University of Pennsylvania is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. The Department of Psychology is strongly committed to Penn's Action Plan for Faculty Diversity and Excellence and to establishing a diverse faculty (for more information see: http://www.upenn.edu/almanac/volumes/v58/n02/diversityplan.html).
