Subject: [AUDITORY] PhD position in the O-Lab at Duke University From: Tobias Overath <otobias@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 12 Nov 2017 22:47:23 -0500 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--Apple-Mail=_F33CB2C2-1502-445B-9B2F-22141F0AC47B Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Dear all, We are looking for a highly motivated young scientist to join the O-Lab, = led by Prof. Tobias Overath, in the Department of Psychology and = Neuroscience at Duke University. Work in our lab investigates how = sounds, from simple sinusoids to complex speech signals, are processed = in the brain, using a combination of behavioral and neuroimaging methods = (fMRI, EEG, ECoG) to track the underlying neural processes. Current = projects investigate the transformation from acoustic to linguistic = analysis of temporal speech structure, online measures of statistical = learning, as well as optimization of cochlear implant coding strategies. Interested candidates should have received an undergraduate degree in = psychology, neuroscience, biomedical engineering, or a related field by = Summer 2018. Familiarity with signal processing, fMRI, M/EEG, or related = experimental techniques is a plus, as is advanced knowledge of at least = one programing language (preferably Matlab). Admission is possible via = the Psychology and Neuroscience Graduate Program = (https://psychandneuro.duke.edu/graduate = <https://psychandneuro.duke.edu/graduate>), or via the Cognitive = Neuroscience Admitting Program (CNAP, = https://dibs.duke.edu/centers/ccn/graduate-cnap = <https://dibs.duke.edu/centers/ccn/graduate-cnap>). The application = deadline is December 1, 2017! Duke University provides a vibrant, highly connected scientific = environment, with many associated departments and interdisciplinary = initiatives (e.g. Departments of Neurobiology, Biomedical Engineering, = Electrical and Computer Engineering; the Center for Cognitive = Neuroscience, the Duke Institute for Brain Sciences, or the Brain = Imaging and Analysis Center).
