Postdoc Position 1


Qualified individuals are invited to apply for a postdoctoral
fellowship in Computational Linguistics. The fellowship is supported
by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and
provides an annual stipend of $28,000 per year, renewable. A qualified
candidate should hold a Ph.D degree in an area of Computational
Linguistics and have experience in syntactic parsing, preferably
principle-based parsing. Technical experiences with C/C++ and
Unix/Linux on Sun/Window platforms are preferable. The successful
candidate will join the UQAM research team in collaboration with
Princeton and MIT researchers to develop a model of parsing based on
the recovery of natural language asymmetries. See the UQAM homepage
for a summery of the project: http://www.asymmetryproject.uqam.ca


The fellowship is expected to start between now and September
1. Consideration of the applications will begin immediately until the
position is filled. Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, a cover
letter, and two letters of recommendations to Anna Maria Di Sciullo,
