We employ a combination of psychophysical methods, functional, and structural neuroimaging (EEG, fMRI, MRI, NIRS). The successful applicant will need to have a PhD in a field related to cognitive neuroscience (e.g. neuroscience, psychology, medicine, linguistics, engineering, physics, or informatics). Applicants should have a background in cognitive neuroscience and/or neuroimaging (MEG, EEG, fMRI, MRI, or other brain imaging techniques), experience in language research, and experience in experimental design, computer programming and statistical methods (software packages FreeSurfer, FSL, AFNI, or SPM; and/or manual tracing methods of brain structures).
