Singapore NTU (Nanyang Technology University- Main Office-HR) Full time
The Clinical Brain Laboratory led by Professor SH Annabel Chen within the School of Social Sciences (Psychology) is housed on the beautiful Yunnan Campus at Nanyang Technological University. Harnessing the principles of Clinical neuropsychology, we examine the intricate relationship underlying mental processes and behavior to understand how dysfunctions of the brain affect the way we perceive internal and external environments, communicate with others, make judgments, plan and execute ideas, and coordinate emotions. We invite you to join us in uncovering the enigma of the brain and work towards translating this knowledge for our well-being.

The main research modalities in our lab include traditional neuropsychological assessments, cognitive tests, functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), diffusion MRI and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). More recently, we have also included the use of electroencephalography (EEG) to answer research questions that require better temporal resolution and transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) to investigate how we can modulate brain functions.

The School of Social Sciences seeks application for a Research Associate to help develop and run neurocognitive and neuroimaging paradigms to understand mechanisms involved with social biases within a multi-cultural population. The successful candidate will be an integral member of an inter-disciplinary research lab with international collaborators. He/she will be responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of research projects. This position requires task-orientation, excellent organizational skills, attention to details and accuracy, flexibility in responding to fluid situations, good interpersonal skills, as well as the ability to work independently.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Handle day to day coordination of funded projects
  • Prepare ethics documents to institutional review boards
  • Manage participant recruitment
  • Handle data collection using multimodal neuromodulation and neurophysiological recordings, such as electroencephalography, heart rate variability and other related imaging data
  • Handle data pre-processing and analysis using SPM or other in house pipelines
  • Liaise with stakeholders and project collaborators
  • Handle systems administration, including maintenance of network servers and data security
  • Contribute to the production of research reports
  • Perform other tasks as required by the Principal Investigators relevant to the research


Job Requirements:
  • Masters degree in Psychology, Cognitive Neuroscience or related field from an Institution of good standing
  • Experience with neuromodulation and/or neurophysiological techniques such as: magnetic resonance imaging, transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial direct-current stimulation, electroencephalography and/or functional near-infrared spectroscopy is preferred
  • Extensive experience with research procedures such as: development of experimental protocols, data curation and processing, analysis and research publications is preferred
  • Good project coordination and administration skills, including data management and storage
  • Strong oral and written communication skills
  • Excellent organizational skills and able to work within given deadlines
  • Self-directed learner who effectively picks up relevant skills as needed
