FYI
---------------------------------
Applicants are being sought for a postdoctoral position (one year,
renewable up to four years) on a project investigating cognitive
processes including attention and prior knowledge in perception of
complex acoustic scenes. The project aims to use EEG/ERP techniques to
examine neural processes underlying the role of top-down schemas in
biasing how listeners segregate and perceive sound objects in everyday
listening environments. Experience in setting up and operating EEG
equipment as well as state-of-the-art data analysis techniques are
essential.
Johns Hopkins is an outstanding intellectual environment for medical and
engineering research. The laboratory is affiliated with the department
of Electrical and computer engineering as well as the Center for Speech
& language processing, an interdisciplinary research center.
Applicants should have a doctoral-level degree in neuroscience, physics,
engineering or relevant disciplines. Prior experience in setting-up and
operating EEG equipment, ERP experimental design, data acquisition and
analysis is necessary. Strong computational skills are desired.
Applications will be considered until the position is filled. For
further information or to submit an application (including a CV and two
references), please contact Dr. Mounya Elhilali, email: mounya(a)jhu.edu.
