The Institute of Child Development at the University of Minnesota seeks an outstanding candidate for a tenure-track position in developmental psychopathology at the Assistant Professor level. We are particularly interested in researchers who (1) study populations at risk because of discrimination, inequality, historical trauma, etc.; (2) study normative and atypical development together in order to understand basic processes that influence pathways of development toward or away from pathological or maladaptive outcomes; (3) adopt a multiple levels of analysis approach (including but not limited to crossing behavior with one or preferably more of the following: genetics, epigenetics, neurobiological, relational, or sociocultural); (4) examine gene-environment interplay; and/or (5) conduct theoretically informative translational research via randomized control trials and/or intervention studies. Similarly, skills in advanced developmental research methods and/or statistical expertise are of interest. All applicants are expected to have strong and fundable research programs and to contribute to both graduate and undergraduate supervision and instruction in developmental psychology/developmental psychopathology. A strong developmental orientation to research and teaching is required. ICD is committed to building a culturally diverse faculty and strongly encourages applications from minority candidates and other under-represented groups.
