FACULTY POSITION IN MIND, BRAIN AND LANGUAGE 
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DAVIS

Assistant professor (tenure-track) position, beginning Fall 2003. 

The University of California at Davis (UCD) has launched a major
initiative in mind, brain and behavior and will hire 8-10 tenure-track
faculty members over the next five years in the newly established
Center for Mind and Brain (CMB). One junior faculty position is now
offered in cooperation with the Department of Linguistics. We seek
outstanding candidates with interests in the general areas of the
cognitive and neural mechanisms of language.

A Ph.D. or equivalent in an appropriate discipline is required. A
demonstrated capability or exceptional promise for developing a
first-rank, independent, extramurally funded research program at the
cutting edge of mind/brain research is required. The faculty member
will hold an appointment as an Assistant Professor in the Department
of Linguistics and the Center for Mind and Brain, and will teach both
graduate and undergraduate courses needed by the Center and the
Department. CMB is part of an interdisciplinary initiative that
includes the recently established Research Imaging Center in the
medical school which houses a 1.5T GE scanner and will add a new 3T GE
MRI scanner in 2003, both dedicated to research.

Interested candidates should submit a statement of research and
teaching interests, curriculum vitae, representative publications, and
the names and addresses of three references to: Professor George
R. Mangun, Director, Center for Mind and Brain, University of
California, 1 Shields Avenue, Davis, CA 95616. Applications received
by November 30, 2002 will be guaranteed consideration for positions
beginning July 2003. The position will remain open until filled.
