Hi everyone:
The Department of Psychology at The OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY seeks an outstanding scientist to serve as the inaugural director of a newly established College of Arts and Sciences Brain Imaging Center containing a state-of-the- art fMRI facility. The magnet (a Siemens Trio 3T) is housed in the psychology building but aims to serve a college-wide teaching and research mission. The position is expected to be filled at the full or associate professor level, but outstanding candidates at the advanced assistant level will also be considered. The individual would be expected to affiliate with and enhance one or more of the existing graduate training programs in the department (i.e., behavioral neuroscience, clinical, cognitive, developmental, quantitative, or social psychology). The individual is expected to have and maintain a strong funded research program involving fMRI and would be responsible for day-to-day operations of the imaging facility and its staff. Candidates are also expected to contribute to both graduate and undergraduate supervision and instruction. Interested individuals should submit a letter of application including a current CV, statement regarding specific qualifications and/or experience in running an fMRI facility, information about research and teaching interests, and three letters of recommendation.
Materials should be addressed to: fMRI Director Search, Department of Psychology, Ohio State University, 1835 Neil Avenue, Columbus, OH 43210-1222. To ensure consideration, application materials must be received by March 15, 2010, but applications will be reviewed until the position is filled.
