A background knowledge of psychiatric and neurological disease would be advantageous.

**Your Work Environment**
The principal investigator on this project is Dr. Andrea Knight.

**We Offer**:
Salary commensurate with experience, depending on qualifications and experience post-PhD. In addition, we offer an attractive groups benefits package, that includes coverage for dental, drug and medical.
The employment will be for a period of 1-year, with a possibility of extension to 2-years on performance, and 3 years depending on funding.
Toronto is a world-class city, rated in the top ten cities worldwide for its livability. It has a rich & vibrant neuroscience community.
The institute offers many opportunities for career development and additional extracurricular training as part of the Research Training Centre.
