Description:

Applications are invited for the post of Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Department of Linguistics. Funds are available on the project, ‘Interactions between Dynamic Effects and Alternative-Based Inferences in the Study of Meaning’ (IDEAlISM; https://dynamicalternatives.wordpress.com/), jointly funded by AHRC and DFG and based in the Department of Linguistics at UCL. The research team is led by Dr Clemens Steiner-Mayr (Göttingen, Co-PI) and Dr Yasutada Sudo (UCL, Co-PI) together with four Co-Investigators, Dr Richard Breheny (UCL), Dr Cornelia Ebert (Frankfurt), Dr Jacopo Romoli (Düsseldorf), and Dr Markus Steinbach (Göttingen). The postholder will work with the team on the aims of developing a formal theory of the interaction between dynamic effects and alternative-based inferences by identifying new theoretical possibilities and exploring ways to test them against experimental data as well as data from gesture and sign languages.
