Lab manager position starting July 1 or later at Johns Hopkins Language/ Cognition lab
Dear colleagues,
I am searching for a new lab manager/ research assistant to start this summer, and am hoping you'll pass this on to any smart, enthusiastic and knowledgeable graduating seniors and/or new MA students you know. The position is full time for a minimum of 1 year, with renewal for up to 3 years. The lab manager position involves coordinating multiple lines of research on spatial representation and language learning in young children and neurologically impaired individuals. Candidates should have background in psychology and/or cognitive science and/or neuroscience with a cognitive emphasis, including statistical skills. They need to be highly independent and responsible. Salary and benefits are competitive.
Please have interested candidates get directly in touch with me by email as soon as possible and send a cv, statement of interest, and names of 2-3 references. Alternatively, candidates can apply on-line on the JHU website; search for the position in the Department of Cognitive Science. Feel free to circulate this to other colleagues who may know of interested candidates.
Thanks,
Barbara

Full-Time Research Assistant
Full-Time Research Assistant - Goldin-Meadow laboratory at the University of Chicago
The Language Development Project at The University of Chicago seeks a full-time research assistant to join our team starting this summer. We are looking for a highly motivated person with an interest in gesture to assist in the coding and analysis of gesture and speech in young children and their parents. The project is part of a longitudinal study of language development in children from the Chicago area. The position will involve video coding of gesture during parent-child interactions as well as participation in the analysis of data and communication of results.
We are looking for a candidate with a strong interest in language development who will take advantage of the opportunity to participate in all stages of the research process. In addition to coding gesture, the research assistant will work closely with a postdoctoral scholar on the project to identify, address, and analyze targeted questions about the role of parent and child gesture at different stages of language acquisition. Prior research experience with gesture, movement, or facial expression is desirable but not required.
This position is especially appropriate for candidates who are interested in pursuing graduate studies in developmental psychology. We seek candidates who are able to commit to spending at least 12 months in this position.
For more information about our lab, see http:/ldp.spc.uchicago.edu.
Inquiries can be directed to Erica Cartmill (cartmill@uchicago.edu).
