re: Four positions open at NYU Neuroscience of Language Lab

FYI ------------------- 1. Lab Manager/RA: 
Full-time Lab Manager position for the Marantz group at the NYU Neurolinguistics Laboratory, with responsibilities extending to the NYU Abu Dhabi Neuroscience of 
Language Laboratory. Initial appointment for one year, with possibility of renewal. BA/BS or MA/MS in a cognitive science-related
 discipline (psychology, linguistics, etc.) or computer science is required.
 The lab manager will be involved in all stages of execution and analysis of
 MEG experiments on language processing, with a concentration on auditory word recognition as modulated by the morphological structure of words. Previous experience with psycho- or neurolinguistic experiments is highly preferred. A background 
in statistics and some programming ability (especially Matlab) would give an applicant a strong edge.
 Preferred start date is July 2013, but this is negotiable. Salary and rank
 will be commensurate with experience. Applications will be accepted through February. Review of applicants will begin immediately. To apply, please email CV and names 
of references to Paul Del Prato at paul.delprato(a)nyu.edu <mailto:paul.delprato@nyu.edu>. 2. RA:
 Two full-time NYU Abu Dhabi Research Institute-funded research assistants for Cognitive Neuroscience of
 Language projects at the Neuroscience of Language Laboratory in Abu Dhabi, assisting PIs Alec Marantz, Liina Pylkkänen, and David Poeppel. Initial appointment for one year, with possibility of renewal. BA/BS in cognitive
 science-related discipline (psychology, linguistics, etc.) or computer
 science. Programming and/or statistics experience a plus. The RAs will be involved in all stages of planning, execution and analysis of MEG/EEG experiments on language processing. Participant recruitment as well as lab maintenance would be among RA duties. Preferred start date is June-July 2013, but this is negotiable. Salary and rank 
will be commensurate with experience; benefits, including travel and lodging in Abu Dhabi, are quite generous. Applications will be accepted through February. Review of applicants will begin immediately. To apply, please email CV and names 
of references to Paul Del Prato at paul.delprato(a)nyu.edu <mailto:paul.delprato@nyu.edu>. 3. Postdoctoral Position: Cognitive Neuroscientist
 2-year, potentially renewable post-doctoral position in the cognitive
 neuroscience of language for the NYU Abu Dhabi Neuroscience of Language
 Laboratory. The researcher will have had experience with evoked response
 experiments using either MEG or EEG. The main 
responsibility of the researcher will be to design and complete MEG experiments with participant populations of varied linguistic and educational 
backgrounds to address questions related to the research projects of the PIs of the Laboratory, Alec Marantz, Liina Pylkkänen, and David Poeppel. Working with Arabic and East Asian speakers
 requires nuanced understanding of the linguistic situation on the ground as
 well as a search for necessary corpus resources and area experts on the 
languages and language-particular psycholinguistics. A researcher with
 cross-linguistic experimental experience would be ideal for the job. 
 Salary and rank 
will be commensurate with experience; benefits, including travel and lodging in Abu Dhabi, are quite generous. Applications will be accepted through February. Review of applicants will begin immediately. To apply, please email CV and names 
of references to Paul Del Prato at paul.delprato(a)nyu.edu <mailto:paul.delprato@nyu.edu>.
