Description:
Postdoc Opportunity in Linguistics & Computational Modeling (3 Years,
DFG-Funded) at the Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf.
Come work with me! I’m looking for a passionate and skilled
Postdoctoral Researcher to join my DFG-funded project, “A Usage-Based
Account of Noun-Verb Asymmetries.”
Project Focus:
We will investigate noun-verb asymmetries in Dutch, Kinyarwanda, and
Maltese through computational modeling and psycholinguistic
experiments.
What You’ll Do:
- Develop and apply computational models to study these asymmetries
- Design, conduct, and analyze psycholinguistic experiments
- Work with Julia, Python, R, and Praat
What I’m Looking For:
- Experience in computational modeling and psycholinguistic
experiments
- Strong background in morphology, morphophonology (as shown by an
excellent dissertation, or relevant peer-reviewed publications)
- Familiarity with the Discriminative Lexicon Model (a plus!)
- Expertise in one or more of the project’s languages (Dutch,
Kinyarwanda, Maltese) (a plus!)
Who Should Apply?
If you’ve written an excellent dissertation in a relevant field and
are excited about computational and experimental linguistics, I’d love
to hear from you!

Application Deadline: 24-Mar-2025

Application Instructions:
Send me a one page letter explaining how your work fits into the
linguistic specialties of the project (morphology, phonology,
semantics, computational linguistics and cognitive science), and two
relevant peer.reviewed papers or two chapters from your dissertation
and one letter of reference.
