Department Princeton Neuroscience Inst
Category Research and Laboratory
Job Type Full-Time
Overview
We are seeking a clinical coordinator for the Rutgers-Princeton Center for Computational Cognitive Neuroscience. The position involves recruiting participants with mental health conditions, as well as healthy controls, for behavioral studies; administering clinical assessments, cognitive batteries and self report instruments to the study participants and running the behavioral tasks. Additional responsibilities include working with researchers at Princeton and Rutgers to identify and design new studies that could be run at the Center, writing and updating study protocols for these studies for review by the Instititutional Review Board, and coordinating the Center seminar series and workshops.
Note that while the position involves working with researchers and running research studies, this is not primarily a research position. The work is in person, and having a car is helpful as recruitment of participants involves driving to different clinical treatment centers.
This is a one-year term position with the possibility of renewal based on satisfactory performance and continued funding. Given the extensive clinical training involved, we are especially looking for candidates who are interested in this position for two years (or more).
