I am currently looking for a full-time Research Assistant/Lab Manager

parent-child interaction, developing and applying coding schemes to

addition, the Research Assistant will help to train and manage
undergraduates working in the laboratory on various projects.

Qualifications: The candidate must have a bachelor’s degree with a
related major (psychology, human development, speech and hearing

some valuable research experience.  The ideal candidate will have
experience with the Child Language Data Exchange System (CHILDES);
will have some research experience and experience with young children;
and will be organized and independent and willing to make an 18 month
(minimum) commitment to the position.  This is a full-time job with
excellent benefits and an anticipated start date in January 2010.

To Apply: Interested applicants should send via email a cover letter
detailing experience, a CV, and telephone numbers and e-mail addresses
of two to three professional references to Dr. Meredith Rowe at
