<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Dear Colleagues,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">My lab, Dynamic Decision Making Laboratory (<a href="http://www.cmu.edu/ddmlab">www.cmu.edu/ddmlab</a>) at Carnegie Mellon University, has a new post-doctoral
position available to start at any time between June 1 and September 1, 2022. This is a full time research position with full benefits, for one year with a possibility of renewal for one additional year conditional on performance and availability of funds.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">A new post-doctoral fellow will support the projects on
<i>human-machine teaming</i>. Under this umbrella, we explore many issues of interest to cognitive science, computational cognitive modeling, and decision science. For example, we look at issues of Theory of Mind and how to represent it computationally; we
also look at issues of trust in AI and adoption of recommendations; and we look at issues of human-AI collaboration, among many other themes. These themes take place in various applied settings such as cyber security, phishing, and search and rescue scenarios.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">A new post-doctoral fellow will need to be familiar with experimental research and with cognitive computational modeling. A post-doctoral fellow will be involved
in the design and implementation of interactive web-based experimental studies with one or more (networked) agents (either humans or models). The post-doctoral fellow will also engage in the development of computational models of individual and collective
behavior; paying special attention to cognitive modeling methods in cognitive science such as: cognitive architectures, Instance-Based Learning models, Reinforcement Learning, and Bayesian approaches.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
