Senior Researcher in Behavioral Genetics
4 weken geleden
We are seeking a highly skilled researcher to join our team at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics. The successful candidate will co-lead a project on sociogenomics and language development, focusing on understanding the causes and consequences of individual differences in language learning in early childhood.
The project involves applying concepts derived from the Familial Control Method to a population of Dutch-acquiring children and their family members. The researcher will be responsible for designing and implementing a series of linguistic tasks and background questionnaires, as well as modelling the association between vocabulary scores of parents and children.
As part of this project, the researcher will work closely with Prof Caroline Rowland, Dr Sergio Miguel Pereira Soares, and Dr Elsje van Bergen. We encourage the candidate to consider collaborations with members of the Language and Genetics Department and to work on data from existing cohorts, such as the Netherlands Twin Register and the YOUth Cohort Study.
The ideal candidate will have a PhD in a relevant discipline, expertise in advanced statistical modelling, and a track record of research on human behavioural genetics. Experience managing confidential information, dealing with ethical and administrative issues, and efficiently managing and cataloguing data is also essential.
We offer a full-time position (39 hours per week) with a term of appointment of 4 years, as well as a competitive salary according to the German TVöD (Tarifvertrag für den öffentlichen Dienst). All research staff have access to state-of-the-art research and training facilities and a generous conference and travel budget.
The job may involve co-supervision of junior researchers, but there are no other teaching obligations. The language of the institute is English, so knowledge of Dutch is not required.
We are looking for a researcher who is passionate about advancing our understanding of human language and behaviour, and who is committed to Open Science.
