A Brief Overview

We are seeking a full-time Research Assistant to assist with our families. This individual will work closely with our imaging technicians, principal investigators, psychologists, research coordinators, and other research assistants in recruiting families to our studies and with the acquisition of brain imaging data (EEG, MEG, and MRI). The Research Assistant will recruit and consent families for entry into the study. They will also enter data into study REDCap databases, manage data flow, and ensure databases and paperwork are maintained. They will have regular contact with clinical and typically developing populations and their families.

Prior experience with some or all of these duties is a plus but is not necessary; training will be provided. Successful applicants will be highly self-motivated and fast learners who enjoy working in bustling research and clinical environments. This position offers valuable clinical research experiences in preparation for applying to graduate school.
