Description:

Research Associate (RS1A: salary range £18,265-27,339 p.a.)

A Research Associate is required to work on two interdisciplinary
experiments studying human language. We seek applicants with practical
experience involving human subjects and prefer a higher degree in
experimental psychology, physiology, or an experimental subfield of
linguistics.  Mathematics, data management and software skills will be
advantageous.

One experiment is a study of mimicry, involving audio prompts and
audio recording; the other involves magnetic resonance imaging of
speech production.

The principal duties of the postholder will be:

i) Recruiting and managing subjects, ii) conducting the mimicry
experiment and assisting with the MRI experiment, iii) data
collection, documentation and management, and iv) assisting with the
data analysis.  There will also be opportunities to contribute to
scientific publications.

The appointment will be for 1 year, from 1 May 2004.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to either Greg Kochanski
(greg.kochanski at phon.ox.ac.uk) or John Coleman
