Subject: RA/Ph.D. position at Cardiff Univ. From: John Culling <cullingj@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 22 Jun 2011 09:51:57 +0100 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>AV motion perception during eye and head movement RA/PhD position with Tom Freeman / John Culling We are seeking to appoint a Research Assistant to undertake research funded by the Wellcome Trust investigating audiovisual motion perception during eye and head rotation. The research asks how perceptual systems combine sensory information with feedback from eye movement and head movement control systems. While there is large literature on these types of interactions in vision science, the research-base in audition and cross-modal science is considerably smaller. The post therefore presents an exciting opportunity to carry work in a relatively unexplored domain. The successful candidate will be encouraged to register for a PhD for which there is additional funding available beyond the term of the post. Salary: Grade 5 (£24,370 - £28,251). Due to limited external funding it is not expected to appoint above £24,370 Closing date: 8th July 2011 For further enquires please contact: Tom Freeman (freemant@xxxxxxxx) or John Culling (cullingj@xxxxxxxx) For further information about the post go here: http://psych.cf.ac.uk/research/perception_action/index.html For further information about the Perception Group at Cardiff University, go here: http://psych.cf.ac.uk/research/perception_action/index.html -- -------------------------------------- School of Psychology Tower Building Park Place Cardiff CF10 3AT UK TEL +44(0)2920874554 FAX +44(0)2920874858 psych.cf.ac.uk/contactsandpeople/academics/freeman.html Prof. John F.
