Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research fellow position in the Laboratoire Parole et Langage in Aix-en-Provence, France (http://www.lpl-aix.fr/).

 Laboratoire Parole and Language is located in the historic center of Aix-en-Provence, France. It is one of the main partners of the Brain & Language Research Institute, Laboratoire d’Excellence (http://www.blri.fr/) that gathers together researchers from different disciplines in order to develop new models and techniques for the description of language processing and its neural basis. In collaboration with several research centers in Aix-en-Provence and Marseille, we provide access to several brain imaging techniques (fMRI, EEG systems with 64 and 256 electrodes, TMS with neuro-navigator, MEG).

 To apply please submit a curriculum vitae, description of research experience, a statement of goals and interests and 2 letters of recommendation.
