[CogSci] POST-DOC at Harvard

[Ashley Thomas]

Dear Colleagues, 

I am seeking applications for a postdoctoral fellow position in my lab at Harvard University, starting Summer or Fall of 2024. The position is for one year, with a possibility for renewal for up to 2 subsequent years at $65,000, including health insurance and other benefits, and funding for conference travel. 

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in Psychology, Cognitive Science, or a related field, with a strong background in developmental research. Candidates should be deeply interested in how infants and children think about social relationships. However, the specific topic is open and should further the research program of the postdoctoral fellow. My lab is part of an inspiring intellectual community, with many opportunities for feedback and collaboration. The Laboratory for Developmental Studies has many resources including a large database, parking, testing spaces, and equipment that the postdoctoral fellow will have access to. 

If you would like to apply, please send the following application materials to athomas at g.harvard.edu with POST DOC APPLICATION in the subject line.
Please include a:
1.    Curriculum vitae
2.    A cover letter/research statement describing your interests, research questions you hope to pursue, areas of overlap, as well as a description of prior work. In this statement, you may also outline your past work in addressing injustice in academia as well as past work with open science. 
3.    Up to two samples of previously published work or preprints.
4.    Names of at least three references (Reference letters will be requested from short-listed applicants)
