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

Psychophysiology of human language and behaviour

Exciting opportunity in psycholinguistics and neuroscience in New Zealand

Neurophysiological Correlates of Human Behaviour

A 2 year Post-doctoral position is available with the New Zealand Institute of 
Language, Brain & Behaviour (http://www.nzilbb.canterbury.ac.nz/) at the 
University of Canterbury, New Zealand. We are seeking a full-time 
postdoctoral fellow to conduct research with institute members on the 
neurophysiological correlates of human behavior using EEG/ERP. NZILBB 
research explores human language and information processing across the 
lifespan. 

The fellow will have expertise in psychophysiology, particularly EEG 
methods, including experimental design, data capture, processing and 
analysis. We are seeking an innovative person with a background in cognitive 
science or neuroscience. Experience working with very young children is 
preferred but not essential. Expertise in eye tracking is an advantage.

The fellow will lead the establishment and development of a new ERP lab 
based on the BioSemi system, Analyzer2 software (Brain Products) and E-
Prime 2 Professional Edition. The fellow will oversee the establishment of the 
lab and work with team members to design and implement experiments, 
following through to co-publication. Co-supervision of PhD students is 
expected. During the tenure of the post the fellow will be provided with an 
opportunity to publish papers from their PhD (if necessary), to learn 
grantsmanship and to engage with members across the NZILBB.

Applications for this position should include a covering letter and CV, a 
statement of prior ERP or EEG experience, research interests and research 
direction, (including a statement regarding possible collaborations with 
NZILBB staff) and contact information for 3 professional referees combined 
into the one document and submitted online at: 
http://www.canterbury.ac.nz/joinus

Up to three reprints of publications should be sent via email to accompany 
your application to hr at arts.canterbury.ac.nz

The closing date for this position is Tuesday 10 April 2012.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a
simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to
LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
