The postdoctoral researcher post is available from 1st of June 2025 for 1 year and 6 months.

RESIST-D is a translational project to investigate the neurobehavioral responses to rewards and to acute stress as key neurobiological mechanisms underlying individual differences in the risk of developing depressive symptoms at different ages after early life stress experiences, a well-documented environmental risk factor for psychopathology. This will involve neuroimaging, behavioural, clinical and demographic data analyses and management of cohorts across a multi-site European study.

The post is open to applicants internationally and minority applicants are encouraged to apply. The

The default position for all new public sector appointments is the 1st point of the salary scale. This may be reviewed, and consideration afforded to appointment at a higher point on the payscale (subject to the project’s funding limitations), where evidence of prior years’ equivalent experience is accepted in determining placement on the scale above point 1, subject to the maximum of the scale.
