Subject: Ph.D. studentship in CCRMA at Stanford University now opens for research in neuroscience of music From: Takako Fujioka <takako@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2012 18:34:03 -0800 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>Dear list members, Please share this with any potentially interested students. Takako ------------ The Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA), in the Department of Music at Stanford University invites applications for the Ph.D. in Computer-Based Music Theory and Acoustics (CBMTA). Research at CCRMA currently addresses audio signal processing, interactive/computational/multimodal music and media technologies, and music cognition. CCRMA now offers an opportunity to do research in neuroscience of music in a new laboratory with EEG, motion capture, and audio-visual systems. Using these facilities and in conjunction with external collaborations, research topics may include neural activities associated with melody and rhythm processing, musical gesture perception, brain-computer interface for music making, and brain plasticity with music training and rehabilitation. The department seeks students who demonstrate substantial scholarship, high promise of attainment, and the ability to do independent investigation. Interested potential applicants with appropriate qualifications are encouraged to apply. Please contact Takako Fujioka (takako@xxxxxxxx) for further information. Application: Apply online to Stanford University. http://studentaffairs.stanford.edu/gradadmissions. Deadline for the submission of applications for all Music degrees is midnight December 14. -- Takako Fujioka, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, CCRMA (Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics), Department of Music, Stanford University takako@xxxxxxxx Stanford, California 94305-8180, USA http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~takako
