Description:
HK Research Professor (Post Doc) Positions at the Center for Data
Science in Humanities
Chosun University, Korea
The newly established Center for Data Science in Humanities (Director:
Eon-Suk Ko) at Chosun University is seeking multiple full-time HK
research professors to join a newly funded HK 3.0 research initiative
titled "Language, Cognition, and Society: A Lifespan Data-Driven
Approach." This six-year national project, supported by the Ministry
of Education and the National Research Foundation of Korea,
investigates how language and cognition develop and interact across
the human lifespan—from infancy to older adulthood—through behavioral,
corpus-based, and computational approaches.
The project is led by a diverse and interdisciplinary team of
scholars, including Michael C. Frank (Stanford University), Eunjong
Kong (Korea Aerospace University), Sunghye Cho (University of
Pennsylvania), Katie Von Holzen (TU Braunschweig), Jun Ho Chai (Sunway
University), Jae-Hun Jung (POSTECH), and Jongmin Jung, Haegwon Jeong,
Chanjun Jeon, and Jungsoo Gim (Chosun University).
We are currently recruiting four to five HK research professors (Post
Docs) to join this international collaboration and help build an
interdisciplinary research community. Successful candidates will
engage in both independent and collaborative research aligned with the
project’s themes, contribute to training junior researchers, and
participate in developing innovative methodologies for studying
language and cognition.
In addition to general appointments, we are especially seeking
researchers for two specialized positions:
1. ManyBabies-AtHome (MBAH) Word Recognition Lead: A
postdoctoral-level role focused on infant word recognition in global,
remote settings using collaborative, open science practices
[https://shorturl.at/5l3tW]
2. Language Biomarkers and AI in Neurocognitive Disorders: A
postdoctoral researcher with experience in analyzing clinical/elderly
speech using NLP, acoustic analysis, and machine learning to study
cognitive decline and dementia [https://shorturl.at/Nao3k]
If you are particularly interested in one of these positions, please
indicate so in your cover letter.
Qualifications:
- A Ph.D. in Linguistics, Psychology, Cognitive Science, Communication
Sciences, Computer Science or a related field
- Strong research background in language development, cognition, or
lifespan approaches to language use
- Proficiency in statistical or computational methods (e.g., R,
Python, NLP, machine learning, etc.)
- Experience with behavioral, corpus-based, or multimodal data
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a diverse
research environment
- Ability to speak Korean is preferred but not required
Application Checklist:
- A cover letter and research statement showing alignment with the
project
- Current CV demonstrating relevant training and research experience
- Two samples of written work
- Names and contact information of three academic references
Timeline and Conditions:
- Positions are available immediately, with a negotiable start date.
- Application review will begin on April 15, 2025, and continue until
all positions are filled.
- Initial appointment is for one year, renewable annually based on
performance.
- Salary will be competitive and commensurate with qualifications

We welcome inquiries and expressions of interest in advance of a
formal application.
