Applications are invited for the post of Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Psychology.

Dr. Scott Glover is seeking a postdoctoral fellow to assist in a grant-funded project on the role of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in motor imagery using TMS. This post is funded for 11 months and will provide an exciting opportunity to work on a new model of motor imagery while gaining valuable research experience within a vibrant department.

Applicants are expected to have attained a PhD in psychology or a related discipline. The successful applicant will have demonstrated the ability to operate at a high level in the academic community, to possess strong written and oral communication skills and a solid knowledge of statistical procedures.
