Work in our = lab investigates how sounds, from simple sinusoids to complex speech = signals, are processed in the human brain, using a combination of = behavioral (psychoacoustics) 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, and = optimization of cochlear implant coding strategies.=20 Postdoc applicants should have completed a graduate degree in auditory = neuroscience (broadly construed) or a related field, ideally using = neuroimaging techniques (fMRI, M/EEG, ECoG). Strong computational skills = are essential (Matlab, Python), as are good interpersonal skills and the = ability to work in a research team. Interested candidates should have = established a track record of publications from their graduate studies = and demonstrated the motivation to pursue a successful career in science = and academia. Duke University provides a vibrant, highly connected scientific = environment, with many relevant departments and interdisciplinary = initiatives (e.g. Departments of Neurobiology, Biomedical Engineering, = Electrical and Computer Engineering; Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, = Duke Institute for Brain Sciences, Brain Imaging and Analysis Center). = In addition, the Research Triangle area (Durham, Chapel Hill, Raleigh) = boasts a wealth of research initiatives.
