Description:

The position is available at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics
beginning September 2017, embedded within the Neurobiology of Language
department. 

Candidates should have, or shortly expect to obtain, a high quality scientific
degree in the cognitive neurosciences, cognitive science, experimental
psychology, or psycholinguistics. 

Preference will be shown for candidates with advanced technical skills or an
affinity for acquiring them, and who are interested in applying those skills
to fundamental questions about language. We seek exceptional students with a
talent and inclination for first class research. Candidates should have an
excellent written and spoken command of English.

The successful candidate will be affiliated with the Neurobiology of Language
department (Prof. Dr. P. Hagoort). The project will be supervised by Dr. Mante
Nieuwland (http://www.mpi.nl/people/nieuwland-mante) and focuses on the
neurobiology of reference during language processing, using neuroimaging tools
(EEG/MEG/fMRI) to reveal the Memory and Unification processes that allow
people to establish reference. The candidate will be part of the International
Max Planck Research School for Language Sciences
(http://www.mpi.nl/education/imprs-for-language-sciences), which will provide
a tailor-made set of education and training opportunities.
