Post-Doctoral Scholar Position, Comprehensive Assessment and Intervention Program,
University of Maryland at College Park
Laboratory Description:
The Comprehensive Assessment and Intervention Program (CAIP) is a clinical research laboratory at the University of Maryland at College Park. Directed by Dr. Andres De Los Reyes, CAIP's work seeks to improve the ability of mental health professionals to use clinical assessments to facilitate identification of the specific contexts in which children and adolescents express mental health concerns and their risk factors. With an emphasis on adolescent social anxiety and family environment factors linked to adolescent substance use, CAIP utilizes information from physiological, behavioral, and subjective modalities to develop and test personalized assessment approaches tailored to adolescents' unique needs. The goal of this work is to identify and disseminate assessment approaches that inform the development of personalized intervention techniques for the amelioration and/or prevention of adolescent social anxiety and substance use.
Our current work seeks to advance two lines of research. In one line of research, CAIP tests novel paradigms that facilitate clinical interpretation of peripheral physiology within assessments of adolescent social anxiety. Specifically, CAIP uses innovative methods for graphically representing physiological data, so that mental health professionals without a background in physiology can incorporate these methods into their clinical work. In a second line of research, CAIP tests methods for incorporating physiological data (e.g., HRV and EEG/ERP), controlled observations of family behavior, and informants' subjective reports of family functioning to identify adolescents at risk for substance use and abuse.
To meet the objectives of these lines of research, we seek a post-doctoral scholar to assist in writing competitive extramural grant applications (e.g., NIH and NSF), preparing first-authored and co-authored scholarly manuscripts for publication, mentoring undergraduate and doctoral graduate students, and assisting in coordinating a multi-modal study of context-sensitive approaches to assessing adolescent social anxiety and family relationships.
The CAIP laboratory is part of a larger research network that includes on-site access to multi-modal physiological equipment (e.g., EEG/ERP, HRV, and GSR). These resources are housed within the Department of Psychology's NSF-funded Joint Center for Cognitive, Social, Computational and Mathematical Neuroscience. Further, resources for conducting fMRI assessments are available at the on-site Maryland Neuroimaging Center.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Requirements:
The ideal candidate will have had experience in collecting and processing EEG/ERP data with adolescents and/or young adults. The position will involve participation in all levels of the research investigation. Some responsibilities will include:
(1) Assisting with preparing extramural grant applications (e.g., NIH and NSF)
(2) Preparing and submitting first-authored and co-authored manuscripts for publication
(3) Mentoring undergraduate and doctoral graduate students
(4) Overseeing multi-modal data collection (e.g., EEG/ERP; HRV; GSR; behavioral and computer-based tasks; and surveys completed by parents, adolescents, and research staff)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Qualifications:
Recommended training background includes: a Ph.D. in a related field (e.g., psychology or neuroscience), previous EEG/ERP research experience (preferably with adolescents and/or young adults), and experience with EEG/ERP data analysis and programming. Experience with preparation of grant applications is strongly preferred.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Application Instructions:
This is a full-time position with benefits to start in Summer 2014. A 2-year commitment is preferred, with the possibility of renewal. This position is contingent on availability of funding. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled. Interested individuals should email a cover letter describing their background and future goals, CV, and names of 3 references and contact information directly to Dr. De Los Reyes at adlr@umd.edu.
