The successful applicant will work under the direction of Professor Thomas Lynch in the Biobehavioral and Virtual Reality Laboratory located in the Mood Disorders Centre, School of Psychology.
Professor Lynch’s research focuses on the understanding and treatment of mood and personality disorders among adult and older adult populations. You will be expected to collaborate with Professor Lynch and other faculty on the development of new behavioral laboratory methods to study emotion and emotion regulation. You will be responsible for carrying out a series of studies examining emotion vulnerability, reactivity, and emotion regulation with patient populations diagnosed with depression/mood disorders and/or personality disorders (e.g., borderline personality disorder). Laboratory studies in this area are ongoing, including experimental manipulations using psychophysiological, behavioral laboratory, virtual reality/computer technologies, and fMRI methodologies.
The ideal applicant will have a background in experimental research design, analysis of psychophysiological data, and strong statistical analytic skills (e.g., SEM, HLM). It is anticipated that you will also be involved in the writing and submission of relevant publications/grant submissions pertaining to the work above. In addition, this position will require the ability to function as a leader in the lab and to direct fellow researchers. The ideal applicant will have experience of generating and testing experimental hypotheses, grant writing, and working independently on projects.
