 ==========================================================================
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/jobnet.html.

This page has been set up so that people can report on the employment
standards of various countries.

be used for research in a number of disciplines, including
linguistics, neuroscience, electrical engineering, computer science,
and physics.

The lab is seeking a full-time Technical Coordinator, starting
September 1st, 2001, or as soon as possible thereafter. The Technical
Coordinator responsibilities include: maintaining the MEG laboratory,
including stimulus delivery equipment and a number of PC workstations
for data acquisition/analysis; supervising and running experiments;
