Text copied below for convenience as well:

The Laboratories of Cognitive Neuroscience, under the direction of Charles
A. Nelson, Ph.D., seek a highly qualified postdoctoral scientist with
interests in neurodevelopment generally, and with specific expertise in EEG
in young children. Specifically, the postdoc will become involved in a data
analytic project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, under the
joint supervision of Charles A. Nelson, Ph.D. and Laurel Gabard-Durnam,
Ph.D. The overall goal of this project, Early Predictors of
Neurodevelopmental Outcomes (EEG), is to make use of – and develop new
tools for – using EEG to predict subsequent cognitive outcomes, including,
in some cases, academic success. The postdoc will have access to data from
a number of different projects (from both low- and middle-income
countries), and will also work closely with other Foundation-funded teams
focused on NIRS and MRI, all part of a broader neurodevelopmental
consortium.

Eligible postdocs should have training in developmental psychology,
developmental cognitive neuroscience, or developmental neurobiology,
ideally with solid experience in neuroscience methods (particularly EEG)
and experience with young children. Familiarity with predictive statistical
methods (e.g. machine-learning algorithms) is preferred. The postdoc will
have the opportunity to engage in various aspects of the study, such as
supervising research coordinators/assistants, undergraduate and graduate
students; extensive involvement in data processing and analysis; and
correspondingly, involvement in manuscript preparation and grant writing.

This position is open for a possible start date of August 1st, 2020. A
2-year commitment is preferred. Applications will be accepted until the
position is filled.

*Qualifications: *- Doctoral degree in developmental psychology,
neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, with a history of research focused on
neurodevelopment - Experience conducting research with infants and/or
children - Excellent interpersonal and research skills - Experience with
EEG/ERP - Knowledge of predictive statistical analyses preferred

*Application Information*: A complete application includes 1 copy of each
of the following items (please include your full name on every page of your
application): 1. Letter of interest 2. CV 3. Names and contact information
for three references

For consideration, please submit an application to Dr. Charles Nelson (
charles...@harvard.edu).
