Predoctoral Jobs

Clinical & Counseling

Research Assistant Position at Mass General Hospital/Harvard Med School The Mood and Behavior Lab at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School is looking to hire 1 full-time research assistant (RA).
The RA will assist with NIMH-funded studies aimed at improving short-term risk prediction for suicidal behavior in youth. We are particularly seeking candidates who demonstrate the character, integrity, and work ethic to excel in a collaborative work environment with a clinically sensitive population. Studies assessing proximal risk for suicidal behavior use computational methods to model neurocognitive markers and/or ambulatory indices (i.e., mobile technology including actigraphy, passive sensing of physiological arousal, passive sensing of social engagement and physical activity, and ecological momentary assessment) in psychiatrically hospitalized youth (see R01MH137793, R01MH124899, R01MH115905, K23MH126168). Additional studies focus on employing computer vision to identify visual indicators of suicide risk among adolescents (R21MH127231, YIG-1-020-20). We also have studies aim to examine how parent-child stress interactions may be associated with or protect against suicide risk in adolescents using automatic sensing of acoustic and visual behaviors (R21MH130767); automate identification of social stressors in social media that may serve as proximal predictors of suicide-related outcomes (K24MH136418), and develop suicide risk prediction algorithms with electronic health records for minoritized youth (P50MH129699).
The RA will work under the mentorship of Dr. Richard Liu and Dr. Taylor Burke at Massachusetts General Hospital. This position is particularly well suited for individuals seeking to gain research and clinical experience prior to graduate or medical school. RAs who demonstrate potential and excel in this position often have opportunities to receive mentorship on conducting independent research projects and grant-writing. More details about these opportunities and a list of our RAs' 1st author papers and extramural grants from their time in our lab may be found here.
Application information: The start date is summer 2025. Interested applicants are invited to submit a cover letter and CV through this link. Any questions may be directed to Devika Goel at moc.liamg|balroivahebdnadoomhgm#moc.liamg|balroivahebdnadoomhgm.

Description - External
The incumbent will serve as a project coordinator for an NIH-funded research study. This coordination involves being in charge of training, work assignment, performance appraisal, and day-to-day supervision of full time research staff, students, and volunteers working with participants as part of the study. This study examines how normal differences between people relate to their heart health. There are two samples involved in the study. In the first sample, the goal is to determine whether daily life experiences, biological and social factors, lifestyle characteristics and behaviors, brain function, and brain structure relate to changes in heart health over time. In a second sample, the goal is to investigate whether a 12-month moderate intensity exercise program can improve heart and brain health. Staff and student efforts for both studies will involve scheduling and interviewing participants, training participants to self-monitor during daily life, and other data collection and data management efforts.

The incumbent will be in charge of coordinating and supervising all of these efforts, as well as adapting existing practices to address unique situations that arise on a day-to-day basis.

The incumbent will communicate directly with other research staff who have participant contact, and will make day-to-day decisions about how best to coordinate staffing efforts in order to meet project goals in consultation with the principal investigator. In addition to day-to-day coordination of participant data collection efforts by other staff and students, the incumbent will also directly work with participants in this study. In this capacity, the incumbent will schedule participants for research visits, will train participants to monitor their blood pressure, mood, and activities during daily life over the course of a week, and will be in charge of handling data quality issues with respect to the information collected.

Incumbent will assess clinic blood pressure, conduct interviews, and administer questionnaires with these participants. Incumbent will conduct telephone follow-up interviews with participants to ensure that they are following the research protocol, and will help keep records to ensure that training and data collection are occurring in a timely fashion. The incumbent will also be responsible for some data processing, management, and transcription as part of this project.

Brunel University London, Centre for Culture and Evolution (Funded PhD Studentship in The Psychology of Fertility Decline and Early Parenting. Project description: The Centre for Culture and Evolution at Brunel University London is offering a fully funded PhD studentship to study the changing cultural landscape of human reproduction. Fertility rates around the world are dropping. Reproductive issues are increasingly politicised, and modern migration, industrialization, and market integration have resulted in family structures and networks that are now very different from those common throughout human history. This project focuses on what these changes mean for reproductive choice and parenting experiences, and the role that our shifting social world plays in shaping these phenomena. Evolutionary and feminist perspectives will be applied to generate theory-driven predictions, and an idiographic approach will enable us to critically evaluate existing models. Studies may address: psychological processes involved in fertility decisions in comparison to risk/economic-based models; early years parenting challenges (0-5y) as influenced by family structure and mobility; and social judgements experienced by pregnant people and parents when their choices or behavior are publicly observable. Based in and funded by the College of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences, this studentship offers a full-time annual London rate stipend estimated at £20,551 plus Home/EU tuition fees, for a maximum of 36 months. The start date will be 1 October 2023.
