Subject: [AUDITORY] PhD Position in Multilingualism/Psycholinguistics From: Narly Golestani <Narly.Golestani@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 1 Mar 2020 21:50:59 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--_000_fa93e31ced3e473c8c4c983a9171b066unigech_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable With the launch of a new =91NCCR Evolving Language=92 (http://www.snf.ch/Si= teCollectionDocuments/nfs/Faktenblatt_NCCR_evolvinglanguage_en.pdf), which = involves nearly 40 different research groups from a large variety of discip= lines across Switzerland, we seek to fill a PhD position for a four-year pr= oject starting in May 2020, or at the selected candidate=92s convenience. Our goal is to make progress in understanding language giftedness from cogn= itive, psychological and neural perspectives. To this end, we plan to carry= out a set of studies involving both behavioral measures of cognitive and l= anguage-related abilities (e.g. auditory/perceptual abilities, phonemic per= ception and production, inductive learning, working memory etc) and brain i= maging measures (fMRI and sMRI). The research group involves two PIs (Goles= tani, Geneva; and Berthele, Fribourg) and a postdoc. Data will be collected= with Francophone (mono- and multilingual) subjects. Applicants should hold an MA degree in psychology, linguistics or a related= field (e.g. psycholinguistics, applied linguistics, multillingualism), hav= e a good command French and English and have strong quantitative research a= nd statistics skills. Additional mastery of German and experience with neur= oimaging techniques would be a strong advantage. The NCCR places great emphasis on gender diversity and we particularly enco= urage women to apply. Applicants may send a pdf file including a cover letter, a CV, names and co= ntact information of 2-3 references as well as any other relevant documents= to Narly.Golestani@xxxxxxxx<mailto:Narly.Golestani@xxxxxxxx> and Raphael.b= erthele@xxxxxxxx<mailto:Raphael.berthele@xxxxxxxx>.
