About The Position

Neuropsychoimaging of Addiction and Related Conditions (NARC) in the Department
of Psychiatry is a multi-disciplinary research group at the Mount Sinai School
of Medicine in New York City. NARC is focused on brain imaging/scanning and
related (e.g., stimulation) studies in individuals with drug addiction,
including those residing in drug rehabilitation facilities.

The candidate will be expected to interact within this dynamic group and with
the PIs with multiple tasks related to IRB management, grants submissions,
participant recruitment, scheduling, screening, test administration, prep for
and specialized training in non-invasive brain imaging/scanning and stimulation
protocols and other diverse tasks (e.g., cognitive testing). We seek a highly
motivated individual with at least an undergraduate degree in neuroscience or
psychology or related field. The successful applicant will have strong
interpersonal skills and communication skills.

The candidate will help with preparing applications to be submitted to the
Institutional Review Board (IRB) for approval of research activities for
different projects; working directly with the Grants and Contracts Office when
preparing and submitting applications for research grants to the NIH, industry
and private foundations; reviewing budgets; ordering supplies and laboratory
equipment based on approved funding; and with outreach recruitment presentations
at various drug-rehab facilities.

The candidate will also help in all aspects of participant handling through
complex experimental paradigms. The process includes recruitment, scheduling,
screening, consenting, cognitive testing, neuroimaging (EEG and fMRI),
stimulation (e.g., with transcranial direct current stimulation, tDCS), and
protocol-related paperwork.
