A fully funded PhD studentship in auditory cognitive neuroscience is availa= ble at the University of Sussex, Brighton, UK, supervised by Dr. Ediz Sohog= lu. This project will use EEG and multivariate analysis methods to investig= ate the neural plasticity supporting perceptual learning of speech. The PhD= student will be based in the School of Psychology and have the opportunity= to interact with vibrant Sussex research communities that include (1) the = Centre for Sensory Neuroscience and Computation, bringing together neurosci= entists and modelers interested in sensory systems, and (2) neuroimaging re= searchers centred around the Clinical Imaging Sciences Centre. They will al= so have the opportunity to interact with project collaborator, Dr. Edmund L= alor (University of Rochester, USA). The successful applicant will be awarded a stipend for 3 years (tied to the= UKRI studentship rates, currently =A315,609 per year). UK tuition fees and= research/training costs are also covered.
