LINGUIST List 21.3934 Tue Oct 05 2010 Jobs: Neurolinguistics: Post Doc, New York University - Abu Dhabi Editor for this issue: Christy Bird <christylinguistlist.org> The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to engage in non-discriminatory hiring practices. We urge employers not to discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity, nationality, disability, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we have no means of enforcing these standards. Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international employment page at http://linguistlist.org/jobs/jobnet.html. This page has been set up so that people can report on the employment standards of various countries.

The researcher will be working in the NYU Neuroscience of Language Lab under the direction of Dr. Alec Marantz, Dr. Liina Pylkkanen, and Dr. David Poeppel. The researcher will have had experience with evoked response experiments using either MEG or EEG, but preferably both. The main responsibility of the researcher will be to explore the appropriate ways to utilize participant populations of varied linguistic and educational backgrounds to address questions about linguistic universals and language specific effects. Working with Arabic and East Asian speakers requires nuanced understanding of the linguistic situation on the ground as well as a search for necessary corpus resources and area experts on the languages and language-particular psycholinguistics. A researcher with cross-linguistic experimental experience would be ideal for the job, and someone from either the Gulf area or India would be especially suited for this project.
