Description:

Applications are invited for a research training bursary (i.e. A PhD plus
Doctoral Certificate in Researcher Enhancement and Development). CASL Research
Centre has a linguistic-phonetics focus, within a clinical context, and it
sits within the School of Health Sciences at Queen Margaret University,
Edinburgh.

Applications are invited on any topic related to CASL’s current research, but
bursary applications which address one of our five priority topics for 2021
will be preferred:
- Acquisition of English phonology, phonetics and meta-phonological awareness
in bi-dialectal contexts and bi-dialectal families [BUR 21-21]
- Phonetic planning and silent transitions into and out of audible speech [BUR
21-22]
- The perception and production of typical disfluencies in speech [BUR 21-23]
- The use of ultrasound tongue imaging in dysphagia and swallowing [BUR 21-24]
- Functional synesthetics of voice and colour: how do lay people describe
voice quality? [BUR 21-25]

Details of the centre’s strategic goals are available on our CASL website,
along with links to current projects, publications, students and staff.
Applications from qualified Speech and Language Therapists or non-clinicians
are both welcome.

More information on CASL and details on how to apply for a bursary (or to the
Graduate School using funding from elsewhere) can be found via the following
URLs. In addition to this bursary opportunity, CASL welcomes applications for
co-supervision of students registered at other institutions or with external
funding at any time. Self-funded and externally registered students would have
more flexibility in the topic of their research and should contact relevant
potential supervisors, or Professor James M Scobbie, jscobbie at qmu.ac.uk to
discuss an application.

CASL’s research portfolio was rated 2nd in the UK for the REF census period
(2008-2013) for the % of our research profile that was world-leading or
internationally excellent (in outputs, environment and impact): 92%.
