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

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>.
