Shawn Green (UW-Madison), Aaron Seitz (UC-Riverside) and Susanne Jaeggi (UC-Irvine) are seeking to hire a post-doctoral researcher to work on a project funded by the National Institute of Aging. The project is focused on investigating features of cognitive training that differentially lead to learning and transfer of learning in both young adults (college-aged individuals) as well as in older adults. The post-doctoral researcher is expected to take a lead role in the project, including setting up experiments, collecting and analyzing data, training and supervision of graduate students and undergraduate research assistants, and dissemination of results at conferences and in research publications.<span class=apple-converted-space> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='vertical-align:baseline;box-sizing: inherit;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;font-size:1.125rem;margin:1.5rem;caret-color: rgb(73, 73, 73);font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: auto;text-align:start;widows: auto;-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;word-spacing:0px'><span style='font-size:13.0pt;color:#494949'>Successful candidates should have strong technical skills, including in data analysis (R preferred), management skills, creativity and a high-level of conscientiousness, as these are required to play a lead role in this sizeable project. They should also have expertise in one or more of the following areas (and knowledge of the others): working memory, cognitive training, perceptual learning, and methods of assessing individual differences and effects of interventional studies. Experience in programming psychophysical experiments, in either MATLAB or Python, is preferred. Researchers must possess a doctoral degree in Psychology, Education, Cognitive Science, Neuroscience, or a related field.<span class=apple-converted-space> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='vertical-align:baseline;box-sizing: inherit;text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;font-size:1.125rem;margin:1.5rem;caret-color: rgb(73, 73, 73);font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: auto;text-align:start;widows: auto;-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;word-spacing:0px'><span style='font-size:13.0pt;color:#494949'>The primary appointment will be at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the Learning and Transfer Lab of C.
