*Call for a 2-year postdoctoral position*
*Laboratoire Parole et Langage (UMR 7309 Aix-Marseille Université / CNRS)*
*Aix-en-Provence, France*
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research fellow position in
the Laboratoire Parole et Langage in Aix-en-Provence, France
(
http://www.lpl-aix.fr/). The position is funded by The French National
Research Agency (ANR). The successful candidate will work on a project
investigating the interaction between spoken and written language during
reading and speech processing in normal population. The main objective
is to characterize the relation between these two language systems in
both cognitive and neural aspects using different techniques (behavioral
measures, fMRI, TMS, EEG).
Applicants with a Ph.D. in neuro-linguistics, psycholinguistics,
cognitive science or a related field will be considered. Applicants must
have experience in functional MRI (experimental design, data
acquisition, preprocessing, analysis) and relevant programming skills
(e.g., Matlab, Python, R). Experience with TMS and/or EEG is a plus.
Laboratoire Parole and Language is located in the historic center of
Aix-en-Provence, France. It is one of the main partners of the Brain &
Language Research Institute, Laboratoire d’Excellence
(
http://www.blri.fr/) that gathers together researchers from different
disciplines in order to develop new models and techniques for the
description of language processing and its neural basis. In
collaboration with several research centers in Aix-en-Provence and
Marseille, we provide access to several brain imaging techniques (fMRI,
EEG systems with 64 and 256 electrodes, TMS with neuro-navigator, MEG).
To apply please submit a curriculum vitae, description of research
experience, a statement of goals and interests and 2 letters of
recommendation.
*Duration*: 2 years (full-time)
*Salary*: 2000 € net/month
*Application deadline*: 2014, November 20^th
