Child Development Lab Student Recruitment

The Child Development Lab, under the direction of Dr. Nathan Fox, is currently investigating the development of the Mirror Neuron System in the first year of life.  To do this, we collect video and EEG data from both infants and adults while producing simple motor acts, and while observing these actions performed by others.  We are seeking highly motivated, upper-level students for Summer 2013 to help with detail-oriented coding of behavioral data.  In addition, students may also assist with the running of infant and adult studies, data entry, and inspection of the EEG.  Requirements:  min 3.0 GPA, 9 hrs/week, 2 semester commitment (Summer 2013 and Fall 2013). We are looking for students with weekday and weekend availability.  Prereq: PSYC 200. If interested, please contact MJ Heise at cdlactionstudy@umd.edu. For more info about this project, visit: http://www.education.umd.edu/EDHD/faculty/Fox/mirrorneurons.php
