Texto do anúncio (Requisitos de admissão e condições de elegibilidade):
Applications are invited from postdoctoral researchers with a background in language acquisition and neurosciences for a Postdoc position at the Phonetics and Phonology Lab & Lisbon Baby Lab (CLUL/University of Lisbon, http://www.fl.ul.pt/ LaboratorioFonetica/babylab/). Applicants should hold a PhD not developed within CLUL, and obtained up to three years before applying to this fellowship.
Área Científica: Neurolinguistics, Language acquisition, Psychology, or Cognitive neuroscience
Applicants must have a Ph.D. in a relevant field, such as neurolinguistics, language acquisition, psychology, or cognitive neuroscience, and previous experience in experimental research in language perception and language processing during their PhD. Good knowledge of at least some of the experimental paradigms used with Eye-tracking and/or EEG/ERP and their implementation, as well as of data extraction routines and analysis, is required. Previous experience in infant speech perception research, including audiovisual speech perception, is also required. A background in statistics, applied mathematics, or programming skills will be a plus. Proficiency in English, as well as knowledge of Portuguese or of other Romance language (namely, Catalan or Spanish) is also required.
Descrição da Bolsa e Objectivos a atingir pelos Candidatos / Grant description and goals:
The main goal of the present fellowship is to develop research within two of the research strands currently pursued at the Lisbon Baby Lab: longitudinal studies of early speech perception abilities and later language outcomes, focusing on multimodal cues (auditory only, visual only, and auditory and visual) and targeting typical and atypical populations. The successful candidate should collaborate actively with the lab?s research team, and be engaged in knowledge transfer and training and knowledge dissemination.
It is expected that the successful candidate will strongly contribute to: (i) new fundamental research on eye gaze measures of early language acquisition; (ii) the definition of early eye gaze and neurophysiological markers of language development; (iii) the assessment of developmental changes in language and communication. The successful candidate will promote and collaborate in the submission of a minimum of two research papers in the first three months of the fellowship.
