Dear APA Division 28 colleagues,
The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine invites applications for postdoctoral research fellowships at the Behavioral Pharmacology Research Unit (BPRU) within the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. Fellows receive research training in the clinical pharmacology of substance use including human laboratory studies and clinical treatment trials. Fellows benefit from experienced faculty and a postdoctoral training program with a 35+ year history and over 130 graduates. Fellows work closely with faculty mentors to gain practical research experience and develop as productive independent scholars.
The open positions will be with Professor Matthew Johnson working on a potentially wide range of topics that may include behavioral economics of addiction and risk behavior (e.g., demand analysis, discounting processes), tobacco regulatory science, and the basic and therapeutic effects of psychedelic drugs. Psychedelic research will include clinical trials with various psychedelic compounds such as psilocybin and LSD. A background in quantitative analysis of behavior, behavioral economics, or computational modeling, along with a strong philosophy of science is ideal. Other desirable skills and topic experience includes programming, machine learning, modeling complex systems, and theories of consciousness. Multiple postdocs in the Johnson laboratory have gone on to university faculty positions.
There are two open positions. One is funded by a NIDA-funded T32 training grant, and the other is funded by the Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research. The T32 position would focus on behavioral economics of addiction and risk behavior, tobacco regulatory science, with the possibility of research with psychedelics. The Center position would be focused on basic and therapeutic effects of psychedelic drugs, including behavioral economic and other quantitative analyses in relation to that focus.
Eligibility: Eligible applicants must have completed doctoral degree requirements (e.g., PhD, MD, DO, PsyD) prior to starting at BPRU. Applicants for the T32 position (but not the Center position) must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Many backgrounds are appropriate, including experimental or clinical psychology, pharmacology, psychiatry or other medicine, neuroscience, nursing, public health, and social work. Prior experience with human or nonhuman research is appropriate. The BPRU is particularly interested in candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of our research program. Applications from persons with disabilities, protected veterans, underrepresented minorities, and women are strongly encouraged.
Start date: Flexible.
