I=92d be pleased if you can share widely within your networks. Best, Lori Holt (lori.holt@xxxxxxxx<mailto:lori.holt@xxxxxxxx>) Postdoctoral Researcher We are seeking a creative, energetic postdoctoral researcher to join us in investigating human auditory cognitive (neuro)science Interested? Please send an email of inquiry with CV and a brief statement of research experience, skills, and interests to Professor Lori Holt, lori.holt@xxxxxxxx<mailto:lori.holt@xxxxxxxx= .utexas.edu> We seek a motivated, energetic team member at the postdoctoral level who wi= ll help us to arrive at a mechanistic understanding of the myriad processes= that contribute to auditory behavior, with a special (but not exclusive) f= ocus on speech. We welcome those with experience in other areas of percepti= on, cognitive science, neuroscience, computation, communication sciences an= d disorders, etc. who would benefit from extending their expertise into the= auditory and/or speech domain. The specific direction of research is flexible. We encourage applicants who= can envision connections with our ongoing research projects, which include= federally- and state-funded projects regarding =95 Auditory selective attention, and its intersection with statistic= al learning =95 Speech perception, and its interaction with speech production =95 Mechanisms of auditory learning, adaptation, and categorization =95 Natural speech communication in real-world contexts We encourage you to think big about how your research goals and interests m= ight align with ours; we welcome new perspectives, skills, and ideas. The p= osition will involve many opportunities for professional development and cr= oss-lab training through our ongoing funded projects with University Colleg= e London (Frederic Dick), Birkbeck College (Adam Tierney), University of Ro= chester (Ed Lalor), and University of Pittsburgh (Taylor Abel). The position=92s start date is flexible. Compensation will be aligned to th= e National Institutes of Health salary pay scale, according to experience. = The initial appointment will be one year, with further funding possible for= additional years upon satisfactory performance and continued availability = of funding.

Qualifications: =95 A PhD in neuroscience, psychology, engineering, or related =95 We are enthusiastic about recruiting a candidate with experience = with electroencephalography (EEG). =95 One or more years of expertise in auditory cognitive (neuro)scien= ce or related field; prior experience with human electrophysiology and psyc= hophysics is highly desirable =95 Broad experience with neuroscience or cognitive science literatur= e; previous expertise with auditory cognitive neuroscience is advantageous =95 Fundamental curiosity about how the brain coordinates auditory be= havior, and a willingness to engage in collaborative research in a workplac= e that values intellectual playfulness =95 Strong statistical and programming skills (e.g., Matlab, Python, = R); experience with coding, data analysis, or computational modeling =95 Enjoyment of working with and teaching others; willingness to pla= y a role in mentoring more junior researchers in the group =95 Fluency in speaking and writing in English =95 Demonstrated ability to write results for publication in the scie= ntific literature =95 Flexibility, ability to learn quickly =95 The ability to work independently as well as part of a scientific= team Responsibilities The broad responsibility is to advance the research and training mission of= the laboratory, while advancing one=92s own training and development. An a= pproximate estimate of responsibilities, as follows: =95 Study conceptualization, synthesis of various literature (20%) =95 Study design, data collection (15%) =95 Data analysis (20%) =95 Manuscript/grant writing and presentation of scientific results (= 20%) =95 Student supervision (10%) =95 Laboratory support (troubleshooting, scheduling, assisting with e= thics and management, 15%) Consistently ranked as one of the best places to live and work in the US, A= ustin offers a mix of year-round outdoor activities, a vibrant live music s= cene, a foodie=92s paradise, a thriving community of young professionals, d= og-friendly venues, college sports, and a truly unique vibe (Keep Austin We= ird). The laboratory is situated in the Seay Building, in the heart of a be= autiful and walkable campus dotted with museums, interesting architecture, = and recreational facilities. Campus is accessible to downtown and multiple = livable neighborhoods. There is ample opportunity to cultivate good work-li= fe balance while advancing your scientific and professional development. Th= e university boasts an Office of Postdoctoral Affairs, dedicated to support= ing postdoctoral researchers succeed in their careers, and an Office of Car= eer and Life Design, available to support career exploration and skills dev= elopment. Great science requires many perspectives and backgrounds.
