Dear SPMlist,
A friend ask me to advertise this at the SPM list.
Best,
CONSOLIDER-INGENIO 2010 PROJECT
“Bilingualism and Cognitive Neuroscience” – (BRAINGLOT)
1. Position
Post-doctoral position in cognitive neuroscience / multisensory integration
Applications are invited for a full-time post-doctoral research
position in the MULTISENSORY RESEARCH GROUP at the Pompeu Fabra
University (Barcelona). The post is part of the BRAINGLOT project, a
Spanish Research Network on Bilingualism and Cognitive Neuroscience
(Consolider-Ingenio 2010 Scheme, Spanish Ministry of Science and
Education).
2. Project
The project brings together the efforts of several research groups
spanning different scientific disciplines with the common purpose of
addressing the phenomenon of bilingualism. The project is conceived
with an open and multidisciplinary vocation, as one of its major
anchor points places the stress on the mutual influence (both in terms
of cognitive and neural processes) between bilingualism and other
functions such as auditory perception, multisensory integration, and
the executive control attention. This is an excellent opportunity for
professional growth for those interested in the fields of psychology,
neurobiology, cognitive neuroscience or related disciplines including
computer science. This position is available mainly to lead brain
imaging studies using fMRI of multisensory integration (possibly
complemented with other methodologies like ERP, behavioral, etc…).
3. Candidate Profile
Candidates must have a PhD and a background in cognitive neuroscience,
neuroscience, and/or cognitive psychology. Previous experience in
speech perception and or multisensory processing will be strongly
valued. Experience with functional MRI data analysis and basic
programming skills (e.g., Presentation, E-prime, and Matlab) is
*necessary*. Applicants from outside the EU are welcome to apply but
must qualify for a valid visa.
4. Conditions
· Position: The position will be funded and renewable for up to
three years
· Starting date: As soon as possible
· Salary: Commensurate with experience.
· Travel: The project will require short trips within Spain
5. How to apply
Applications should include:
· a C.V. including a list of publications
· the names of two referees who would willing to write letters
of recommendation
· a cover letter describing research interests
