POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN APPLICATION OF ADVANCED METHODS TO
STUDY LEARNING DISABILITIES AT FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY
We are recruiting a Post-Doctoral Fellow to assist with our ongoing research projects being
carried out in association with the NICHD-funded P50 Center titled the Learning Disabilities Translational Science Collective: Building on the Florida LDRC. The mission of the Center is to increase our understanding of the nature and origins of learning disabilities and to apply this knowledge to improve prevention, early identification, and remediation. This 2-year position is funded by the FSU Foundation and is a research assignment with no teaching requirement. Consequently, this position is ideal for a candidate who aspires to become a professor in a major research university.
A PhD in psychology, education, statistics, communication disorders, or a related field is
required by the date of appointment but is not required for applying. The successful candidate will have experience with or interest in learning how to do meta-analysis, model-based metaanalysis (MASEM), and structural equation modeling. Training will be available. A substantive research interest in reading or language disorders is desirable but not mandatory. Opportunities exist for participation in data analysis, manuscript preparation, grant writing, and collaboration with ongoing research projects in addition to continuing to pursue one’s own areas of research interest.
Interested candidates should send a CV; a cover letter describing relevant experience, skills, and future goals; and arrange to have three letters of recommendation sent directly to Rick Wagner at rkwagner@psy.fsu.edu. Consideration of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled. The start date is negotiable, but no earlier than August 26, 2024.
