Description:

Postdoctoral Fellowships in Cognitive Science at New Bulgarian
University

The Central and East European Center for Cognitive Science at New
Bulgarian University invites applications for two one-year
post-doctoral fellowships for the 2004/2005 academic year. The
successful candidates will have an active research program in an area
of cognitive science that complements the strengths of current faculty
at the Center. Preferred areas include:

· Analogy Making: Computational Modeling and Experimental Research
  (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice Grinberg)
· Cognitive Architectures (DUAL) (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice Grinberg)
· Constructive Memory: Computational Modeling and Experimental
  Research (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice Grinberg, Encho Gerganov, Lyudmil
  Mavlov, David Popivanov, Elena Andonova)
· Context and Context Sensitivity of Human Behavior (Boicho Kokinov,
  Maurice Grinberg, Encho Gerganov, Elena Andonova, Stefan Mateeff,
  Angel Vassilev)
· Human Conceptual System (Lilia Gurova, Encho Gerganov, Elena
  Andonova, Maurice Grinberg, Boicho Kokinov)
· Language Processing: Behavioral Experimental Research and Modeling
  (Elena Andonova, Encho Gerganov, Lyudmil Mavlov, Maurice Grinberg,
  David Popivanov)
· Visual Perception: Experimental Research and Modeling (Stefan
  Mateeff, Angel Vassilev, Maurice Grinberg, Naum Yakimoff)
· Cognitive Economics and Decision-Making (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice
  Grinberg, Stefan Mateeff)
· Cognitive Science Applications in Education (incl. active methods of
  learning, assessment, and e-learning) (Boicho Kokinov, Maurice
  Grinberg, Encho Gerganov)
· Cognitive Science Applications in Marketing and Advertising
  (incl. development of marketing strategies and studies, Ads concept
  creation, Ads testing) (Encho Gerganov, Boicho Kokinov)
· Cognitive Science Applications in Human Factors, Human-Computer
  Interaction, Web Design, User-Centered Software Design, Usability
  Studies, etc. (Maurice Grinberg, Encho Gerganov, Stefan Mateeff)

The Post-Doctoral Fellows are expected to interact with faculty and
graduate students and to work on research projects. The available
research facilities include an experimental psychology lab, a
neuroscience lab (EEG), and a usability lab (eye-tracking
equipment). As part of the application process, applicants are
strongly encouraged to contact one or more of the faculty members in
the Center for Cognitive Science and discuss possible research
activities. More information on faculty, and the Center generally, is
available at: http://www.nbu.bg/cogs/

Applications (research proposal, CV, list of publications, 2 letters
of recommendation) are welcome by September 1st, 2004, to the
following address:

Dr Elena Andonova
Central and East European Center for Cognitive Science
New Bulgarian University
21, Montevideo St.,
Sofia 1618
Bulgaria

Starting date is expected to be 1st of October 2004, but can be
negotiated further.

Enquiries can be made by email to Dr. Elena Andonova at New Bulgarian
University, (Email: eandonova at nbu.bg)


The postdoctoral fellowship is funded by a project ''Integration of
Central and East European Center for Cognitive Science into the
European Cognitive Science Research Area'' (EUROCOG, contract No
QLG4-CT-2002-90459) in the framework of the Fifth Framework Program of
the European Union.
