    <![CDATA[The Center for Cognitive Neuroscience (CCN) at Duke University invites applicants for a Project Coordinator (PC) in the genetics of primate social behavior in the laboratory of Dr. Michael Platt. 

Requirements: The PC must hold a PhD in behavior, neurobiology, genetics, or a related field. 

Responsibilities: The PC will oversee the goals of the project, organize and manage genetic and behavioral databases, and co-ordinate personnel and research institutes.

We are particularly interested in applicants with database management experience, expertise in gene-behavior association studies, and strong personal interaction skills. The PC will meet monthly with all investigators and personnel on Duke’s campus as well as via conference call with personnel at other sites to review progress, identify problems, and correct setbacks. The PC will also coordinate yearly meetings of the entire research team at Duke University in order to review data, revise techniques, and plan future research. 

Deadline: The PC position is available immediately. 

This position has been created with ARRA Stimulus funding and is a limited term appointment that is contingent upon the availability of additional research funds.

Send a statement of research interest, CV, and 3 letters of reference electronically to Dr. Michael Platt via email: platt@neuro.duke.edu.
