Job Title: Post-Doctoral Fellow

Description:

The New Zealand Institute of Language, Brain and Behaviour is seeking
a Post-Doctoral Fellow to join the team of researchers working on a
project funded by the Royal Society of New Zealand Marsden Fund "Te
reo Māori vowel sequences within and across  morpheme boundaries". The
research team comprises Professor Jen Hay, Professor Jeanette King, Dr
Forrest Panther (all University of Canterbury) Simon Todd (UC Santa
Barbara), Márton Sóskuthy (UBC) and Dr Peter Keegan (University of
Auckland).

The project looks at the acoustics of te reo Māori vowel sequences,
and how this may be affected by variation in perceived intervening
morphological boundaries. It involves both corpus and experimental
work. We collect measures on morphological complexity, and investigate
how morphology affects aspects of the pronunciation of vowel
sequences.

Applications are invited from researchers with expertise one or more
of the following areas: te reo Māori, morphology, acoustic phonetics.
You will be conducting experimentation and statistical modelling, and
experience or capability in both of these areas is highly desirable.

The Post-Doctoral Fellow will be employed by the New Zealand Institute
of Language Brain and Behaviour, University of Canterbury and will be
required to relocate to Christchurch. The expected start is
negotiable.

Deadline for applications is May 28 2023, New Zealand time

Application Deadline: 28-May-2023
