See below and attached for information about an assistant professor faculty recruitment in developmental methodology at Northwestern University. Please spread the word!
Brief Description.
The Department of Medical Social Sciences in the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern is recruiting a developmental methodologist on its team science track. We seek an exceptional early career investigator focused on methods that enable early identification and risk prevention at the intersection of mental health and language development. The faculty member will collaborate and lead scientific activities across a broad range of early childhood studies supported by Northwestern’s Institute for Innovations in Developmental Sciences (DevSci; https://devsci.northwestern.edu/), including the Chicago site of the national HEALthy Brain and Child Developmental (HBCD) Study and a newly funded “Mental Health, Earlier” P50 Implementation Science Center. We are particularly interested in a methodologist who bridges lab-based neurodevelopmental assessment and community-engaged methods to accelerate translation of developmental discovery to real world settings. The faculty member will be encouraged to continue/launch independent research in applied developmental science that harnesses prevention and implementation science methods. Expertise in both early normative and atypical language and mental health markers (e.g., irritability) and contextual influences for children and families with diverse lived experience are key. MSS is a transdisciplinary department in FSM with approximately 80 social scientists guided by the shared mission to harness the social and behavioral sciences to advance equity, innovation, and impact in health.
