Research Officer position

[Marilyn Vihman]

dear colleagues:

Please find below the details of a position in our laboratory. We are 
looking for a psycholinguist (with PhD, or very close to it) to run a 
project involving word form recognition at age 9-12 mos, involving 
both head turn and ERP experiments in parallel, with both English and 
Welsh infants (knowledge of Welsh is not required, however). 
Preferred starting date: January 2004.

Although the opening is a two-year position, it would be possible to 
extend it for a longer period, subject to funding.

Please write to me directly for further information, or to Personnel 
for application forms (address below). The closing date for 
applications is Sept. 5, 2003.

Applications are invited for a full time Postdoctoral Research 
Officer to work on an ESRC funded project currently underway at the

Related Potential (ERP) techniques to study the onset of word form 
recognition.  The successful applicant should have a PhD in

participants, including liaison and collaboration with the local 
health authority, supervising the conduct of behavioural and ERP 
experiments, analysing collected data and writing up research 
findings.

The position is available for 2 years, from the 1st of January 2004
