The Sensory, Cognitive, and Affective Neurodevelopment (SCAN) lab at UCLA is seeking a
study coordinator (Staff Research Associate; SRA) to work on multiple studies of infants,
children, adolescents, and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (PI: Dr. Shulamite Green).
The SRA in this position will work across multiple MRI and psychophysiological studies focused
on sensory processing across the autism spectrum. We are seeking independent, highly
motivated candidates to coordinate participant screening, recruitment, data collection (including
acquisition of MRI data as well as behavioral and psychophysiological data), and data
management. The SRA will also assist with preparing IRB correspondence, grants and
publications, as well as training and supervising undergraduate research assistants. Prior
background in psychology/neuroscience is required; experience with neuroimaging methods,
particularly fMRI, and physiological methods such as heart rate and skin conductance
acquisition and analysis is preferred. Experience working with children with neurodevelopmental
conditions or developmental disabilities is also preferred. A minimum 2-year commitment is
required and candidates who can start by or before June 2025 will receive priority
consideration.

Interested candidates should email a cover letter, CV, transcripts (unofficial is ok), and name
and contact information of three references to Dr. Shulamite Green ([email protected]).

Required:

B.A./B.S. in Psychology /Neuroscience or related fields (e.g., Psychobiology)

Demonstrated capacity to work independently with minimal supervision as well as ability to work
collaboratively in a team

Ability to assess situations and problem-solve using own judgment

Ability to communicate clearly and effectively, both verbally and in writing, with other
researchers, staff, students, and PIs, as well as with research participants and their parents

Experience interacting with children and/or adolescents

Experience with computer software including Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint

Preferred:

Experience working with children with developmental disabilities

Experience coordinating research studies with vulnerable/clinical populations

Experience collecting and/or analyzing behavioral, psychophysiological, or MRI data

Ability to multi-task and work in parallel on multiple projects

Knowledge of graphics programs (e.g., Canva) and statistical software (e.g., SPSS, R)

Knowledge of UNIX operating system and MRI analysis software (e.g., FSL, AFNI)

Experience with Python, Matlab, or other programming systems

Applicants of any race, ethnicity, religion, color, age, sex, national origin, sexual orientation,
gender identity, or disability status are encouraged to apply. We are deeply committed to
reducing inequities in autism diagnosis, treatment, and participation in research, and strive to
create an inclusive environment within our labs and research programs.
