[Randall C. O'Reilly]

BEHAVIORAL NEUROSCIENCE FACULTY POSITION AT THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO AT 
BOULDER 

The Behavioral Neuroscience program in the Psychology Department at the 
University of Colorado invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant 
Professor position. We seek a broad range of applicants whose interest could 
be in the neural basis of memory, addiction, stress adaptations, pain 
modulation, recovery from brain damage, emotion and sensory processing. 
Researchers with a developmental/aging approach to these problems also will 
be considered. The selected candidate will have training in Neuroscience, 
postdoctoral experience, and demonstrated research independence, and will be 
expected to develop and maintain a strong extramurally-funded research 
program, as well as contribute to the department’s undergraduate and graduate 
teaching mission.  A candidate’s qualifications are more important than the 
specific area of expertise. This individual will join a strong Neuroscience 
group on the Boulder Campus (see Univ. of Colorado Center for Neuroscience 
Web-site for more information: 
http://www.colorado.edu/neuroscienceprogram/index.html), and  have the 
opportunity to interact with the Neuroscience group at the University of 
Colorado Health Sciences Center in Denver 
(http://www.uchsc.edu/neuroscience/).  Applicants should submit a curriculum 
vitae, relevant reprints, a concise statement of research and teaching plans, 
and arrange to have three letters of recommendation sent to: Chair, 
Behavioral Neuroscience Search Committee, Department of Psychology, 
Muenzinger Building Room D244, UCB 345, University of Colorado at Boulder, 
Boulder, CO 80309.  A review of completed applications will begin on Nov. 15, 
2007 and will continue until the position is filled.  The University of 
Colorado at Boulder is committed to diversity and equality in education and 
employment.
