From: Lars Meyer [lmeyer at cbs.mpg.de]
Subject: Psycholinguistics: Postdoctoral Researcher, Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Saarbrücken, Saarland, Germany

 
University or Organization: Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences 
Department: Research Group "Language Cycles"
Job Location: Saarbrücken, Saarland, Germany 
Web Address: https://www.cbs.mpg.de/independent-research-groups/language-cycles
Job Title: Postdoctoral Researcher
Job Rank: Post Doc

Specialty Areas: Psycholinguistics 


Description:

The research group Language Cycles investigates how the electrophysiological
profile of the human brain constrains our ability to understand language—and
how this may have shaped human language as such, cross-linguistically. We
directly link behavioral psycholinguistics, experimental neurolinguistics
(i.e., M/EEG), corpus linguistics (i.e., treebanks), and computational
linguistics (i.e., information-theoretic modeling).

The postdoctoral researcher (2 + 1 years) will analyze a large-scale
cross-linguistic dataset of behavioral responses collected through a
smartphone application over the past years. In particular, the candidate will
analyze the relationship between spectral and temporal properties of
behavioral responses and computational models of human language, including
both symbolic and information-theoretic.
