Boston, United States Psychological Science Full time

The Department of Psychology and Institute for Cognitive and Brain Health at Northeastern University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate or more senior position. The position is to begin Summer or Fall 2026 for a term of 2-3 years, with yearly renewals based upon funding and performance. This position will be based in the Social Development and Wellbeing Lab led by Dr. Alexandra Rodman. The Lab and offices are in the heart of Boston, in the new state‑of‑the‑art ISEC building, which includes a brand‑new neuroimaging center. Our research examines the social lives of teens, including their social behavior and experiences, and how they process social information. We also examine how individual differences in these processes confer risk or resilience to mental health problems. As part of the Institute for Cognitive and Brain Health, there is ample opportunity for collaboration with other faculty and researchers of the Institute. Responsibilities Lead independent research and analyze existing data ranging from behavioral (e.g., computerized task) to neuroimaging (e.g., fMRI) data from studies examining neurodevelopmental mechanisms of social information processing (e.g., learning, emotion, or motivational processes). Explore basic characterization of adolescence or translational questions related to clinical risk and resilience factors. Manage, preprocess, and analyze behavioral and neuroimaging data, collect new data (e.g., behavioral task, fMRI, digital phenotyping via mobile phone, wearables). Supervise and mentor lab members at earlier career stages on independent research projects. Contribute to grant writing, lead independent research, and disseminate results through conferences, talks, and first‑author manuscripts. Qualifications PhD degree (or expected by September 1, 2026) in Psychology or a related field (e.g., Neuroscience, Education, Sociology), with an interest in studying adolescent development and/or wellbeing. Track record of research on psychopathology in children and adolescents and/or experience with complex social processes. Ability to effectively manage a research team. Experience using advanced quantitative methods, including computational modeling, machine learning, and analysis of structural and functional neuroimaging data. Candidates must submit a CV and cover letter, along with the name and contact information of two referees who have worked with the applicant in a supervisory research role or related position. The cover letter should include the applicant’s research interests (core research questions and projects completed, future directions and how they relate to the current position) and academic/technical training, including current skills and training goals. Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis, with priority given to submissions received before February 18th, 2026. We especially encourage those from underrepresented groups in science to apply. Please contact Dr. Rodman at a.rodman@northeastern.edu if you have further questions. #J-18808-Ljbffr
