to begin July 1, 2023. Candidates must have a PhD or equivalent degree, a
strong record of published research, and interest or experience in teaching at
the undergraduate and graduate levels.
We are seeking innovative scientists whose research

The successful candidate can take advantage of the
technological resources and collaborative environment of Cornell University to

and neuroscience, is internationally recognized for its distinctive ecological
perspective, and embraces interdisciplinary and translational approaches. The
department has strong connections to Cornell’s Bronfenbrenner Center for
Translational Research, houses a fMRI
scanner dedicated to research, and maintains significant research
collaborations with the medical campus in New York City. The successful candidate
also will have the opportunity to join initiatives such as Cornell’s
Integrative Center for Developmental Science, the Cornell Center for Behavioral
Economics and Decision Research, and/or the Center for the Study of Inequality.
Review of applications will begin December 15, 2022, and
