Recruiting a Doctoral Student
The Perception, Action, and Development Lab is accepting applications for doctoral students for the 2023-2024 academic year. A new graduate student would be encouraged to work in one or more of the lab’s main lines of research: 1) how perceptual-motor systems adapt to changes in the body and environment, 2) developmental changes in infants’ everyday visual experiences, and 3) factors that influence infants’ looking behavior. Students would gain training in a variety of methods, such as mobile eye tracking, screen-based eye tracking, inertial movement recording, machine learning, and ecological momentary assessment. Students can apply to work with Dr. Franchak in either the Developmental and Cognition and Cognitive Neuroscience.
