The area focuses on how communication and media affect political attitudes and behaviors, as well as what communication reveals about the workings of political institutions and political systems. The area is also known for its innovation in research methods and focus on scientific inference.************************* Position Summary: The Department of Communication is seeking Physicist: Research Scientist. A physicist is sought for an interdisciplinary study of observer effects as it relates to the quantum measurement problem. The study will be a comprehensive assessment of observer effects in wave function collapse but will uniquely include psychological perspectives and methods in the development of research designs. The primary investigator will be a psychologist and the study will be conducted within the Institute for Research in Social Sciences at Stanford University. The position will require that the researcher have a strong background in experimental methods, necessary to execute the Tonomura double slit design (using a BBO crystal) and the Mach-Zehnder interferometer design. A strong background in the quantum measurement problem would be desirable. The project will begin with a comprehensive review of the literature-both theoretical and experimental-on variables influencing wave function collapse and developing a plan for replicating or testing a wide range of them. It will then develop and apply methods for assessing and controlling variables related to observation, drawing on ideas from psychology as well as quantum physics. Data will be analyzed, and results will be published in peer reviewed outlets. The researcher will devote 80% of their time to the research project. The other 20% can be devoted to other research interests and taking advantage of other opportunities at Stanford University. This is a 100%FTE, 1 year fixed-term position with the possibility of renewal. This position will be based on the Stanford campus and will be considered for an option of telecommuting (hybrid of working on-site and off-site), subject to operational need.

The Human Motor Control and Neuromodulation Lab under Dr. Helen Bronte-Stewart is part of the Stanford Movement Disorders Center within the Department of Neurology and Neurological Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine. We are seeking an experienced, full-time research assistant to join a dynamic and fun diverse group of post-doctoral fellows, graduate students, research scientists, and research assistants. This is a 2-year position. The goal of the research in the laboratory is to understand the pathophysiology of movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease to create more effective therapies. At Stanford, innovations in neural interface technology have allowed us to discover how abnormal electrical brain activity contributes to disorders in movement. In the Human Motor Control and Neuromodulation Lab, the first decoding of electrical activity in deep brain structures during abnormal movement in Parkinson's disease patients was performed using novel and investigative sensing neurostimulators. Our team has deconstructed brain activity to discover the neural code responsible for the abnormality of walking in Parkinson's disease and can predict debilitating freezing events that can cause falls, significant morbidity, and even death. We are currently working to restore movement in Parkinson's disease using real-time closed-loop deep brain stimulation that responds to subcortical neural signals or kinematic signals from wearable sensors in a demand-based fashion. Additional projects include the development of a remote monitoring tool for Parkinson's disease and other disorders which recently received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation, as well as a pilot clinical trial for treating cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease using a novel approach for deep brain stimulation of the Nucleus Basalis of Meynert. The current position offers an exceptional opportunity for a motivated and intellectually curious individual to participate in rewarding and cutting-edge research in human motor control and neurophysiology in Parkinson's disease. There are also additional exploratory projects in the areas of traumatic brain injury, concussion in athletics, Alzheimer's disease, Major Depressive Disorder, and Dementia with Lewy Bodies. The position involves direct human subject interaction and testing, the collection, organization and analysis of electrophysiological and kinematic data, and participation in the publication of results. The candidate will participate in the submission and renewal of Institutional Review Board and grant applications in conjunction with the research team and the PI.
