Department: ARiEAL Research Centre
Job Location: Ontario, Canada

Job Title: Postdoctoral Position at ARiEAL Core Research Platform
Job Rank: Post Doc

Specialty Areas: Applied Linguistics; Cognitive Science;

Description:

The Centre for Advanced Research in Experimental and Applied
Linguistics (ARiEAL) is inviting applications for a one-year
postdoctoral position in language sciences to support the development
of ARiEAL Core Research Platform in its early stages, with a
particular focus on developing a business plan, conducting market
research, and preparing ARiEAL’s research labs for a growing
clientele.

Created in 2023, ARiEAL Core Research Platform is a new initiative for
ARiEAL Research Centre. It is an extensive commercialization program
that will lead to several new training, research collaboration, and
funding opportunities for ARiEAL, our researchers, and our trainees.
As a core research platform, we are able to provide a full-cycle
research/knowledge for-a-fee translation service program – we take
problems from “real world” settings (classrooms, industrial partners,
communities, and clinical settings, to name a few), develop and
implement a multi-methods research and experimental program to assess
them, create and analyse the data in our lab, and from then on,
communicate our findings to stakeholders, implement evidence-based
solutions to their problems as well as measure their efficacy.

Working under the supervision of Dr. Ivona Kučerová, director of
ARiEAL Core Research Platform, this postdoctoral position is an
exciting opportunity for recent PhDs in language sciences and related
disciplines that are interested in a unique career-growth opportunity
and want to further develop their, research, data analysis, technical,
industrialization, and commercialization skills in the dynamic
environment of ARiEAL Core Research Platform. By collaborating with
McMaster’s industry liaison offices, MILO and FORGE, the postdoctoral
fellow will gain the skills and acumen required to engage in market
research and develop a business plan. The postdoctoral fellow will
also have the opportunity to network with industry and community
partners, growing their own professional and academic network.
Collaborating with an interdisciplinary team of language scientists,
the postdoctoral fellow will also provide technical and data analysis
support within a variety of laboratories, including eye-tracking,
phonetics, and electroencephalograph labs, that are a part of ARiEAL
Core Research Platform, and will have the opportunity to further
develop new skills with the key concepts, methods, and approaches
related to the main research foci at ARiEAL and its labs.

Qualifications: The successful candidate will have:
 - A PhD in cognitive science, linguistics (or other language-related
disciplines) with some background and/or experience in business and/or
marketing.
 - An excellent academic record for their career stage, including a
beginning record of publications, conference presentations, and
research agenda aligned with the position.
 - Extensive knowledge of the field of experimental and applied
Cognitive Science of Languages.
 - Knowledge of and experience with at least one or two of the
following: relevant data analysis and research methods, and/or
research equipment such as, but not limited to, eye-trackers,
ultrasounds, electroencephalographs, and electroglottographs.
 - (An asset) Knowledge of marketing and/or business research methods,
including market research, survey research, and mixed mode research.
 - Knowledge of research principles and practices for equity,
diversity, and inclusion.
 - Candidates who identify as being from a marginalized group/groups
are encouraged to apply.

How To Apply:
Applicants should submit the following in a single PDF document to
ariealrc at mcmaster.ca by June 1, 2024. Please include:
