Assistant Professor in Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Maryland, College Park

The Department of Psychology (https://psyc.umd.edu/) at the University of Maryland, College Park seeks candidates for a tenure-track position in cognitive neuroscience, employing human fMRI. Research interests may include (but are not limited to) aspects of higher cognition such as learning, memory, decision-making, affect, cognitive/executive control, language or social processing. We are particularly interested in candidates whose research builds strongly on mathematical or computational methods (e.g., Bayesian methods, big data, economic approaches, deep learning, predictive classifiers, psychoinformatics, social network analysis, computational statistics, neural networks, machine learning), including using computational methods to bridge different levels of analysis (behavioral, neural). Research programs designed to answer questions related to how brain function changes across the lifespan (e.g., development, aging) and/or study brain function in health and disease (e.g., addiction, autism, Alzheimer's, anxiety) are welcome. The research plan should strengthen collaborative interactions between neuroscience and other disciplines within our department and possibly across other departments at UMD (e.g., biology, engineering, hearing and speech sciences, linguistics, computer science).
