Developmental Neuroscience Search

PSYCHOLOGY, PENN STATE.  The Department of Psychology at Penn State 
is broadening a search for candidates for a tenure line faculty 
position, at any rank, with a specialization in any area of 
developmental neuroscience for Fall 2004. The department seeks an 
individual whose research will contribute to the department-wide 
neuroscience initiative and complement and broaden the capacities of 
the Department's Child Study Center (CSC) and Penn State's Child, 
Youth, and Family Consortium (CYFC). The CSC, a unit of the 
Psychology Department, is dedicated to the integration of 
developmental and clinical science (http://csc.la.psu.edu). The CYFC 
is a university-wide consortium dedicated to promoting 
interdisciplinary collaborations that advance research and outreach 
to children, youth, and families (http://www.cyfc.psu.edu). 
Candidates for the position may hold a doctorate in developmental or 
clinical child psychology (clinical candidates must hold a doctorate 
from an APA-approved program with an APA-approved internship). 
Preference will be given to candidates with post doctoral experience. 
The ideal candidate would bring a research program with a focus on 
the role of the developing brain in the development of competence 
and/or psychopathology in childhood (e.g., cognitive neuroscience 
applied to learning and/or learning difficulties, affective 
neuroscience applied to the development of emotional and social 
competence or particular disorders). The ideal candidate would also 
be interested in collaborating with colleagues in the Psychology 
Department, other departments at Penn State, and the Hershey Medical 
School. Please send letter of interest, vita, sample papers, and 
three letters of references to Pamela M. Cole, Developmental 
Neuroscience Search Committee, Box M, Department of Psychology, Penn 
State University, University Park, PA 16802.  Review of applications 
will begin September 15, 2003 and will continue until the position is 
filled.  Penn State is committed to affirmative action, equal 
opportunity and the diversity of its workforce.
