Research assistant in Cognitive Neuroscience (Neurophysiology) Columbia University, New York City
We are looking for a motivated research assistant to participate in neurophysiological studies of attention and learning in monkeys. The responsibilities include the care and behavioral training of monkeys and assistance with daily lab operation. Depending on the skills and interest of the applicant, there is the opportunity to become active participant in research, including author on publications. The position is ideal for a recent undergraduate who wishes to experience neuroscience research prior to applying to graduate or medical school.
Candidates should have an undergraduate degree in Psychology, Neuroscience, Biology or related fields, familiarity and ease with computers and strong organizational and interpersonal skills. Expertise with programming, electronics and/or behavioral training is strongly desirable.
The laboratory is part of Keck-Mahoney Center for Brain and Behavior Research. We share a floor with 5 other groups also working in systems neuroscience and are particularly committed to maintaining a strongly interactive and collaborative atmosphere among the different laboratories. http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/dept/neurobeh/
