We wish to make three additional academic appointments and further

neuroscience.  The school, which has recently established a Centre for
Cognitive Neuroscience with facilities for fMRI and ERP, has an outstanding
record of success in both teaching and research.  According to national
assessments we rank among the top-rated UK Psychology departments for
research (i.e. rated 5A on a scale of 1-5*) and have achieved the highest
rating "excellent" for Teaching Quality.

Applicants will be expected to have a Ph.D. and teaching and research
experience appropriate to the level of appointment in a relevant field.

to be considered.
