Drs. Jordan Axt [miclab.ca] and Eric Hehman [hehmanlab.org] are seeking applications for a jointly funded Post-Doctoral Researcher, beginning Fall 2025. The contract is for one year, with renewal for a second pending excellent performance.

POSITION DESCRIPTION: The ideal candidate will be interested in contributing to on-going and related research trajectories in the shared interests of each lab. These topics would broadly be centered on intergroup dynamics and prejudice.

Each research group uses a wide variety of techniques, including diverse behavioral (e.g., computer mouse-tracking, digital face modeling, group interactions, modeling competitions), and statistical techniques (e.g., multilevel modeling, structural equation modeling, machine-learning, geo-spatial, big data approaches).

QUALIFICATIONS: Competitive candidates will have a PhD in psychology or a related discipline by the time of appointment as well as a strong track record of research and interest in topics such as intergroup relations, prejudice, and stereotyping.

Candidates with programming experience or expertise in MLM, SEM, machine-learning, spatial analyses are desired but expertise in all these areas is not required.

Salary will be benchmarked above the SSHRC postdoctoral fellowship pay scale at $50K per annum plus benefits. Postdoctoral candidates who have their own funding may also apply.

HOW TO APPLY: Please submit the following materials to both lab managers at [[email protected]] and [[email protected]]: a cover letter; CV; a 2 page personal/ research statement speaking to research interests, up to three sample publications; and the contact details of three referees.

Applications will be considered beginning on April 24 and continue on a rolling basis until the position is filled.

If you have questions, please feel free to reach out to either Jordan [[email protected]] or Eric at [[email protected]].
