================================================================  

The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobs/jobnet.html. This page has been set 
up so that people can report on the employment standards of various countries.

Description:

Applications are invited for one postdoctoral research position (salary scale
BAT IIa) for three years (not renewable) in a research project on
'Neurolinguistic studies on the functional organization of the mental lexicon',
funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Foundation) as
part of the Sonderforschungsbereich 471 'Variation and evolution in the lexicon'.

Project description: 
The main focus of the project is to understand how linguistic representations
change over time. We will study language contact situations and use
neurolinguistic methods (EEG, fMRI combined with EEG) to examine the effects of
learning two different linguistic systems. Start¬ing point is the investigation
of segmental and suprasegmental phonological representations. 

More information about the SFB 'Variation and evolution in the lexicon' may be
obtained at: http://ling.uni-konstanz.de/pages/proj/sfb471/index.html

Requirements:
Applicants should have an M.A. degree (or equivalent) in linguistics or
psychology or have a medical education. They should have received a PhD in one
of these fields or other disciplines related to studies in human Cognitive
Neuroscience of language. Experiences in EEG, fMRI and other brain imaging
techniques and highly developed skills in scientific writing, the ability to
become acquainted with new methods within short time and good familiarity with
scientific tools like MATLAB programming and statistical analysis are appreciated.

Applicants should send a cover letter, a full CV and one sample publication
or paper to: Carsten Eulitz (carsten.eulitz at uni-konstanz.de) at the address below.

Applications will be considered until the available position is filled. The
first contract will begin in January 2006, but applications for a later starting
date will also be considered. The University of Konstanz is an equal opportunity
employer and tries to increase the number of women in research and teaching. The
