The Centre for Developmental Language Disorders and Cognitive
Neuroscience has a further opening for a full time postdoctoral research
scientist from June, 2002. An opportunity exists for this position to
lead to a lectureship in the Department.<br>
The successful applicant 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 work explores theoretical issues related to the
current controversy surrounding the development and organisation of
specialised cognitive functions by investigating typically and atypically
developing children and teenagers. The exact nature of the experiments
will partly depend on the research expertise of the successful applicant;
but will involve psycholinguistic investigations of sentence processing
which aim to complement high-density ERP recordings at the Centre to
elucidate the development of specialised cognitive functions, such as
grammar, the relations between grammar and semantics and non-linguistic
cognitive abilities, and generally, the underlying nature of SLI. Closing
date: Until position is filled. Informal inquiries: Prof. Heather van der
Lely

Please send CV, names and addresses of two referees and samples of
published work (e.g., 1-2 papers) to: Centre for Developmental Language
Disorders and Cognitive Neuroscience, Dept of Human Communication
