<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:#212121">We are seeking a full-time scientific programmer to start in the fall of 2023 (start date is flexible). The programmer will be responsible for establishing and maintaining preprocessing and analysis
pipelines for several NIH-funded studies focusing on how learning and decision-making processes relate to structural models of psychopathology. In addition to establishing and maintaining analytic infrastructure, the candidate will be responsible for overseeing
the integration of psychophysiological, neuroimaging, and RedCAP data streams, and will be involved in the development and piloting of novel experimental paradigms. The candidate will also play a key role in training research staff in using programmatic tools.
The programmer will also have opportunities to facilitate experimental paradigm implementation, data collection, data analysis, manuscript preparation, and grant submissions. This position will be jointly supervised by Drs. Allen and Dombrovski, and the programmer
will work closely with our existing data team. The position will also involve collaboration with other study team members including clinicians, study coordinators and research assistants, and post-doctoral scholars.</span><span style="color:#212121"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
