Applications are now being accepted for a 2-year NICHD post-doctoral research fellowship in Developmental Science at the University of Michigan. Pending final budgetary approval, the Developmental Area within the Department of Psychology will award up to 2 post-doctoral fellowships with a possible start date as early as September 2016.
The objective of the fellowship is to train individuals across three pillars of knowledge: (1) the developmental science of social context (e.g., families, social-communicative context, culture, socioeconomic status, media, and social cognition); (2) aspects of human developmental neurobiology (e.g., brain imaging, genetics, epigenetics, and endocrine function); and (3) advanced research methods (e.g., quantitative statistics appropriate for combining and analyzing longitudinal data from different levels of functioning). This cross-training will produce researchers well-positioned to develop cutting-edge work that advances knowledge about how neurobiological factors interact with environmental contexts to influence development across several domains.
The Developmental Area faculty have a broad range of research interests across the lifespan from infancy to late adulthood. Interested applicants should check the developmental area’s website and view the list of core faculty and their research interests:
http://lsa.umich.edu/psych/program-areas/developmental-psychology.html

In addition to core faculty in the Developmental Area, the training grant includes five additional investigators at the University of Michigan: Bill Gehring (Psychology), Richard Gonzalez (Psychology), Colter Mitchell (Institute for Social Research), Patricia Reuter-Lorenz (Psychology), and Sari van Anders (Psychology).
Candidates will identify two advisors (at least one will be in the Developmental Area); one advisor will provide training in developmental science of social context and the other in human developmental neurobiology. In a research statement, the candidate will describe a project that combines these areas of research. It is suggested that the candidate discuss these plans with potential advisors. Fellows are expected to be actively engaged in research during their appointment and will receive additional training in the responsible conduct of research, grant writing, manuscript preparation, and professional development.

Qualifications:
The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. in psychology, human development, human neuroscience, or related fields, and have a record of research accomplishment in child or life-span development. The individual must be a US citizen or a non-citizen national of the US or have been lawfully admitted for permanent residence in the US. Salary is in line with NIH pay scale.

We seek to make two Professorial appointments to enhance the capacity of two research groups: Social Processes (Professor in Social Psychology), and Perception and Action (Professor in Perception or Cognition). Candidates with a strong research trajectory in these areas are also invited to apply for the position of Reader. We are also seeking to appoint a Lecturer (the equivalent of Assistant Professor) in an area that complements our research profile. Whilst all applicants will be considered on their individual merits, there is the potential for the lectureship to be linked with one of the Professorial appointments.
Our Social Processes Research Group already has a strong international reputation for the application of social and cognitive psychology to better understand criminality and security threats. We are seeking an appointment who will provide leadership to develop further our research capacity in social cognition, which encompasses the areas of morality and emotion, culture and identity, goals and motivation, group processes, attitudes and social perception, and applied health. Our Perception and Action Research Group has an emerging reputation for the study of human interactions with the world via sensory and motor processes, in addition to strengths in the study of nutrients and dietary patterns that enhance cognitive function and brain health, dementia, memory, and language.
The Department has a strong tradition of collaborative research across traditional boundaries within Psychology and beyond. Our researchers are currently involved in three ESRC Research Centres (Corpus Approaches to Social Sciences - CASS; Centre for Research and Evidence on Security Threats - CREST; International Centre for Language and Communicative Development - LuCiD). For the senior positions we are seeking individuals who can provide strong academic leadership and whose research and teaching connects them with other areas of excellence within the University such as the Centre for Ageing Research, the Institute of Data Science, the Institute of Social Futures, and/or the forthcoming Health Innovation Campus (for details see http://www.lancaster.ac.uk/research/multidisciplinary-research/).
Lancaster University is among the top 10 universities in the UK and the top one percent of universities in the world. The Department of Psychology at Lancaster has a core complement of 37 members of academic staff and a thriving community of post-doctoral researchers and PhD students. In the latest Research Excellence Framework (REF2014), Psychology at Lancaster University was in the top 20 Psychology Departments in the UK for world leading (4*) research publications. The strength of the Department’s research is mirrored by the quality of its undergraduate program (recently ranked a top-10 UK course by The Telegraph) and by its postgraduate provision, which includes ESRC recognised PhD and Masters programmes within the largest Doctoral Training Centre in the UK.
All applicants should have a track record of research and teaching excellence demonstrated by publications, research grant acquisition, socio-economic impact, and teaching experience, commensurate with stage of career.
Informal enquiries are welcome and should be addressed to Prof. Kate Cain (email: ku.ca.retsacnal|niac.k#ku.ca.retsacnal|niac.k Tel: 01524 593990).
