Job description

Assistant/Associate/Full Professor Cognitive Brain Health - Northeastern

Led by the Bouvé College of Health Sciences, the Center for Cognitive and Brain Health at Northeastern University ( https://web.northeastern.edu/cbhlab/ ) invites applications for multiple tenured/tenure-track faculty positions in cognitive and brain health to start in the fall of 2023 at the rank of Assistant, Associate, of Full Professor.

We welcome applicants who conduct interventional human subjects research, with a focus on faculty who use neuroimaging, behavioral, and/or computational tools to assess cognitive and brain health. We are particularly interested in individuals who bring a unique perspective to the Center, which may include focus areas such as: epigenetics and genetics, neuromodulation, nutritional neuroscience and metabolomics, computational modeling, or other related fields.

Potential topics of interest may also include lifestyle factors such as physical activity, diet, cognitive training, meditation, music, dance, theater, and social interaction, among other foci, as well as a range of populations of interest from childhood through older adulthood in healthy individuals or patient populations. We are particularly interested in candidates who take uni- and multi-modal approaches to studying interventions of cognitive and brain health in different contexts, including laboratory, clinic, school, workplace, family, and community.

Because this is an interdisciplinary position announcement, the successful faculty member will be jointly appointed to Departments and Colleges at Northeastern University that best fit with their interdisciplinary research and focus.

Responsibilities will include teaching undergraduate and graduate courses, conducting an independent, externally-funded research program, advising students, and performing service to the university.

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in a related field by the appointment start date, and an interdisciplinary record of research commensurate with rank.
