A full time postdoctoral research scientist position is available from
February, 2001 at the new Centre for Developmental Language Disorders and
Cognitive Neuroscience. <br>
<br>
The post holder will be asked to lead a component of an overall research
programme funded by the Wellcome Trust on the cognitive function and
structure of sentence processing in children with SLI and children
developing normally. The exact nature of the experiments will partly
depend on the research expertise of the successful applicant; it could
involve high-density ERP recordings, and/or psycholinguistic
investigations of sentence processing to elucidate the development of
specialised cognitive functions, such as grammar/the relations between
grammar and semantics and, generally, the underlying nature of SLI. The
ERP investigations will be carried out in collaboration with Profs Angela
Frederici (MPI for Cognitive Neuroscience, Leipzig), Mark Johnson, and
Gergely Csibra (Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development, Birkbeck
College) in whose centres training and support will be provided. Closing
