Research Fellow

Post Summary

The Gillan Lab at Trinity College Dublin (www.gillanlab.com) is looking for a Research Fellow to work on an exciting project that will develop passive smartphone metrics of cognitive fluctuations, incorporating research in large general population samples as well as patient groups, including psychiatric populations and patients with Lewy body dementia.

The role arises from a grant from the Health Research Board in the Republic of Ireland. There is considerable scope for input in design of research questions that fall within the remit of using smartphone data to study dynamic fluctuations in cognition over time, using both passive and active assessments.

The Research Fellow will join a growing team of PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, and app developers in the Gillan lab and will participate in regular lab meetings, learn about diverse methodologies in mental health science and have the opportunity to attend international conferences annually.
