Research Fellow in Visual Cognition and Cognitive Ageing (Psychology)
The Psychology Department at the University of Edinburgh invites applications for a full time interdisciplinary post-doctoral Research Fellowship in visual cognition and cognitive ageing. The appointment will be for one year, with the possibility of renewal for up to two additional years. The post is available from September 1, 2008.
Supported by the European Research Council, the successful applicant will join a team of researchers, led by Dr. James Brockmole, dedicated to executing a systematic program of research aimed at advancing our theoretical understanding of the cognitive architecture of visual working memory and how this system changes with age. The successful applicant will be responsible for designing, running, and analysing experiments and will have the opportunity to contribute to all other aspects of the research, including conceptualization of studies and dissemination of research through journals and conference presentations. The Fellow will also have the potential to collaborate actively with other members of the visual cognition and cognitive ageing communities in one of the leading centres for cognitive science, neuroscience, cognition, and computation worldwide, and based in one of the most attractive and culturally rich cities in Europe. Project partners at the University of Edinburgh include the Lothian Birth Cohort Studies, the Disconnected Mind Project, and the MRC Centre in Cognitive Ageing and Cognitive Epidemiology.
Complete details regarding the fellowship and the application procedure (which can be completed online) can be found at: www.jobs.ed.ac.uk (ref: 3009386). Applications must be received by July 8, 2008. Interviews will take place on July 16, 2008. In the mean time, informal enquires are welcome and may be addressed to Dr. James Brockmole: James.Brockmole@ed.ac.uk.
The salary scale for this post will be £28,290 – £33,780 per year. Starting salary will be commensurate with experience, but will be no higher than £30,013 (currently point 3 on the UE7 scale).
The University of Edinburgh is committed to equality and diversity.
