Dear colleagues, Applications are invited for one Research Associate/Fellow (until Dec 2024), and one Research Assistant (2y), based in the Scottish Section of the University of Nottingham’s Hearing Sciences department,
located in Glasgow. Both posts are part of Dr Lauren Hadley's UKRI funded programme, which focuses on how people process speech when listening in conversation, and, specifically, how this differs between people with normal and impaired hearing. Research Associate/Fellow (until Dec 2024). The successful candidate will develop and execute specific elements of the programme on predictive mechanisms in social interaction. The post-holder will use eye tracking to address prediction
speed and confidence, electroencephalography (EEG) to address oscillatory behaviour, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to investigate motor simulation. They will have the opportunity to gain supervision experience and to lead their own studies as
the project progresses. Candidates must have a PhD or equivalent experience in cognitive science, experimental psychology, neuroscience or a related area. Key requirements are strong statistical skills, experience designing neural/physiological experiments
with human participants, and enthusiasm for collaborating with others. DEADLINE: 4th Feb https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/jobs/currentvacancies/ref/MED385520 Research Assistant (2y). The successful candidate will assist researchers studying how people process speech when listening in conversation. Duties will include running experiments using a variety of experimental techniques, from
eye tracking and electroencephalography (EEG) to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Candidates must have an undergraduate degree in Psychology, Cognitive Science, Neuroscience, or a related area. Someone that enjoys working with people, can communicate
well, has good statistical and software skills (and a desire to learn more), and that can pick up new techniques confidently will excel in this role. DEADLINE Jan 21st https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/jobs/currentvacancies/ref/MED407320 Informal enquiries may be addressed to Dr Lauren Hadley:
