![]() A Bachelor’s Degree in a related field is required, and prior undergraduate research experience is strongly encouraged. This is an entry-level position responsible for human subjects data collection (including biospecimen samples), recruitment, and other responsibilities as needed. Here is a link to the NIH Reporter study description Methods include clinical assessments, digital phenotyping, natural language processing, neuropsychological tests, MRI, EEG, and fluid based (e.g., saliva, blood) biomarkers. This is a 27 site multinational prospective longitudinal study that evaluates biomarkers and clinical risk factors predicting the development of psychotic disorders in youth meeting criteria for a prodromal syndrome. PRONET: The second and third positions are funded by U01-MH124639 which supports the Psychosis Risk Outcomes Network (PRONET).Here is a link to the NIH Reporter study description: This is a multisite study (UGA, Emory, Northwestern) developing and validating novel next-generation negative symptom assessment tools specifically designed for youth at clinical high risk for psychosis, including a clinical symptom interview (the negative symptom inventory- psychosis risk), digital phenotyping (eg geolocation, accelerometry, ambient acoustics, ambulatory videos), and social media metrics. GAINS: The first position is funded by R01-MH116039 which supports the Georgia and Illinois Negative Symptom Study (GAINS).Spanish-English bilinguals are especially encouraged to apply. If interested, please contact Jordan Perry via email. RA positions are available on a volunteer basis (first semester) and in exchange for course credit or pay (second semester). Given the nature of the training that RAs will receive, students are expected to work ~8-10 hours per week and commit two semesters to the lab. All lab activities, including bi-weekly lab meetings, are currently being conducted virtually. The project involves the collection of and transcription/coding of audio and video data. Student RAs will work primarily on a research project that examines bilingual language development in Spanish-speaking Latino toddlers. The interests of the BiLDL research team are in the areas of language and literacy development, particularly in Spanish-speaking Latino Dual Language Learners (children from homes in which English is not the only or primary language spoken also referred to as bilinguals, English language learners). The Bilingual Language Development Lab (BiLDL) at Loyola University Chicago is seeking undergraduate students interested in psychology to serve as research assistants (RAs). Application review will begin on April 12. The DISI 2021 application can be found online. Alums have lifetime access to a wealth of dedicated resources, which includes funding opportunities for future projects. Moreover, Fellows and Storytellers will be inducted into a DISI network of 60+ extraordinary faculty members and 120+ DISI Alums. Thanks to generous support from the Templeton World Charity Foundation, all accepted Fellows and Storytellers will receive funding to support their participation in the Institute. ![]() DISI will culminate in a project showcase on July 24, 2021. Fellows and Storytellers will also work together on projects of their own devising. DISI 2021 will take place virtually, from June 27 through July 16, 2021. During this time, Fellows and Storytellers will attend lectures, social events, and salons, learning from and interacting with our world-class faculty. We hope that this creative community will work together to develop new ways of engaging with big questions about the mind, cognition, and intelligence. We’re looking for open-minded participants who want to take intellectual risks and break down disciplinary barriers in the spirit of dialogue and discovery.
