Purdue University's Department of Psychological Sciences invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Neuroscience and Behavior to begin in August of 2021. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a program of nationally recognized research and teach undergraduate and graduate level courses.

The candidate must have a Ph.D. in psychology, neuroscience, or a related field and should have appropriate postdoctoral experience. Candidates should have a strong publication record, a research program with a high likelihood of obtaining external funding, and potential for teaching and mentoring excellence. We are particularly interested in candidates whose research is at the intersection of neuroscience and aging, but we will consider all candidates who conduct research in neuroscience, broadly defined.

The department's graduate program in Neuroscience and Behavior was recently restructured to integrate research in human neuroscience within the program's traditional focus on (non-human) animal neuroscience.
