UCLA POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS IN COGNITIVE AND AFFECTIVE DYSFUNCTIONS IN THE PSYCHOSES

Our NIMH-supported postdoctoral research training program at UCLA is focusing on developing researchers who bridge between clinical research on psychotic disorders and cognitive and affective science and neuroscience. NIMH fellowships for psychologists and psychiatrists are available. Opportunities for clinical research include work with patients with schizophrenia or affective disorders. Fellowships are available for individuals with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology, psychopathology, cognitive psychology, cognitive neuroscience, or affective neuroscience or an M.D. with psychiatric residency.

Integration of basic and clinical research is encouraged through co-mentoring by clinical researchers and scientists focusing on basic research on cognitive and affective processes. Clinical research mentors include: Robert Asarnow, Ph.D., Carrie Bearden, Ph.D., Michael Green, Ph.D., William Horan, Ph.D., Robert Kern, Ph.D., Stephen Marder, M.D., Gregory Miller, Ph.D., Keith Nuechterlein, Ph.D., and Cindy Yee-Bradbury, Ph.D. Basic scientist mentors include: Susan Bookheimer, Ph.D., Alan Castel, Ph.D., Mark Cohen, Ph.D., Naomi Eisenberger, Ph.D., Barbara Knowlton, Ph.D., Matt Lieberman, Ph.D., Harold Pashler, Ph.D., and Catherine Sugar, Ph.D.

For further information, contact Keith Nuechterlein, Ph.D., Training Director, at keithn@ucla.edu or 310-825-0036. Potential applicants should also arrange through Dr. Nuechterlein to speak to possible mentors about their research interests and opportunities at UCLA. Applicants should initially send a C.V. and a brief email or cover letter indicating research interests and career directions to Keith Nuechterlein, Ph.D. <keithn@ucla.edu mailto:keithn@ucla.edu>. By Feb. 1, the full application should include at least two letters of recommendation, copies of any reprints or preprints, and a 2-3 page (double-spaced) summary of a research project that has been discussed with proposed mentors. All materials can be sent by email (keithn@ucla.edu mailto:keithn@ucla.edu) or by mail to Keith Nuechterlein, Ph.D., UCLA Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, 300 UCLA Medical Plaza, Room 2251, Los Angeles, CA 90095-6968. NIMH fellowships offer $42,840 to $56,376 per year, depending on number of years since the Ph.D. or M.D. NIMH fellows need to be U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Fellowships are typically for two years.
