Description:

The Neuroscience of Language Lab at Duke University invites applications for a

communication, and cognitive neuroscience. State-of-the-art scanning and data
analysis facilities are available and located at BIAC in the Duke Medical
Center. Research focuses on cognitive neurolinguistics, fMRI studies of
language(s), the role of multilingualism and musicianship in building
cognitive reserve, approaches to delaying the onset of symptoms of dementia.
Methodology includes sociolinguistic research methods and ethnographic
methods.

The ideal candidate would have a background in linguistics and cognitive
neuroscience. Experience with fMRI data analysis (including FSL) and/or
programming would be beneficial.
