[Matt Goldrick]

(Apologies for multiple postings)
In conjunction with our institutional partners, the Department of
Linguistics at Northwestern University invites applications for fully funded
(tuition + stipend) graduate fellowships in linguistics and
interdisciplinary research in language.  Northwestern has a vibrant
community of researchers actively working on a wide variety of issues in
language structure and processing, utilizing a diverse range of methods and
populations.

Issues

   - Structure of linguistic systems within and across levels:
   Pragmatics, Semantics, Syntax, Morphology, Phonology, Phonetics
   - Perception, production and acquisition of first and second languages

   - Dynamics of language: diachronic change; experience-related
   plasticity
   - Language and music: Parallels and interactions

Methods

   - Statistical modeling; probabilistic approaches to language structure
   and processing
   - Formal/mathematical theories of linguistic systems
   - Experimental studies of language; psycholinguistics
   - Acoustic phonetics; prosody and intonation
   - Machine learning and natural language processing; corpus analysis
   - Functional and structural neuroimaging; electrophysiology

Populations

   - Mono- and multilingual
   - Infant, young adult and elderly
   - Acquired and developmental disorders
