RA Position at Queens

Research Assistant Wanted

Drs. Beth Kelley and Daryl Wilson at Queen's University (in Kingston, Ontario, Canada) are looking for a full-time research assistant to begin July 1, 2011 (date somewhat negotiable). We have recently begun a project using adaptive video games to look at the training of attention and executive functioning in children with autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, and fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. Duties would include testing of these children on a neuropsychological battery (training provided), travelling to participant’s homes to implement the training programme on their computers, supervision of undergraduate students, and general lab duties (ordering supplies, scheduling etc.). This is a fabulous opportunity to learn more about research and special populations, as well as gain experience in standardized testing protocols and general management of a research study.


We are looking for someone who is personable, responsible, dependable, has good attention to detail, and has experience and facility working with atypically developing children. The position is a one-year position, with a possibility of renewal. If you are interested, please send your resume/CV and three possible references (including one able to address your clinical skills with children) to Beth Kelley atkelleyb@queensu.ca
