Research assistant opportunities
RESEARCH ASSISTANT x2
We are looking to hire two research assistants to join two projects funded by UKRI Future Leaders Fellowships.
​
The first project (PI: Hana D'Souza) will focus on understanding the everyday learning opportunities of infants and toddlers with and without Down syndrome during play, using head-mounted cameras and eye-tracking. This position is full-time, working on campus 35 hours per week, and fixed-term for two years or until 14th May 2028 (whichever is soonest).
The second project, with the ELAN lab (PI: Dean D'Souza) will focus on using naturalistic and experimental methods (including neuroimaging) to understand how typically developing infants adapt to their diverse environments. This is a full-time position, working on campus 35 hours per week, and fixed-term until 31st January 2028.​

Closing date: Thursday 19th February 2026
