The Division of Developmental and Cognitive Neuroscience within the Emory National Primate Research Center at Emory University is currently seeking a full time Research Specialist to join our lab. Our research consists of understanding the neurobiological mechanisms that underlie increased risk to develop Psychiatric disorders such as anxiety and substance use disorders in individuals that experience early life stress. This position will report directly to Dr. Mar Sanchez. We use nonhuman primate models to understand stress-induced risk for psychostimulant abuse.
Collaborate. Innovate. Serve. These three simple words capture what we do at EPC to help advance science and improve the health and well-being of humans and non-human primates.
