The T. Denny Sanford School of Social and Family Dynamics (https://thesanfordschool.asu.edu/) invites applications for a full-time Post-Doctoral Research Associate with an anticipated start date of August 16, 2015. Subsequent annual renewal is possible on a fiscal year basis (July 1-June 30) for up to four years contingent upon performance, the needs of the center and university, and the availability of resources.
