About This Opportunity

This is an exciting opportunity for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to contribute to an ongoing research program exploring the behavioural and neural mechanisms that underpin visual perception in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Working within a supportive and research-intensive environment, the successful candidate will contribute to participant recruitment and assessment, behavioural and electroencephalography (EEG) data collection and analysis, and the dissemination of findings through high-quality publications.

This role is ideally suited to an emerging researcher with expertise in cognitive neuroscience, experimental psychology, or a related discipline, and will particularly appeal to candidates with experience conducting human behavioural and/or EEG research with clinical or other special populations. The position offers an excellent opportunity to strengthen an independent research profile while contributing to innovative, purpose-driven research with the potential to advance understanding of ADHD and visual perception.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Conduct participant recruitment and testing, including behavioural and electroencephalography data collection and analysis.
  • Produce quality research outputs and disseminate findings through publications, presentations and other discipline-appropriate channels.
  • Contribute to collaborative research projects, competitive funding applications and the translation of research knowledge and practices.
  • Support the development of Honours and Higher Degree by Research students, while contributing to citizenship, service and priority activities within the unit.

This is a full-time, fixed-term position through to 31 March 2027 at Academic Level A.

About You

  • Completion, or near completion, of a PhD in psychology, cognitive neuroscience, neuroscience, or a closely related discipline.
  • Demonstrated experience conducting research involving human participants.
  • Demonstrated capability in analysing behavioural and/or neurophysiological data.
  • Experience with EEG data collection and analysis, or the demonstrated ability to develop this capability.
  • Strong organisational and interpersonal skills appropriate for recruiting and testing participants from a clinical population.
  • An emerging research profile, including publications in reputable refereed journals and presentations at conferences.
  • Experience contributing to internal service activities and engaging with relevant external academic, professional or community networks.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
