[ACT-R-users] Research Opportunities Available with the PALM Team

[Gluck, Kevin A Civ USAF AFMC 711 HPW/RHAC]

The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory's Performance and Learning Models (PALM) Team has a variety of positions available for cognitive, computational, and computer scientists, ranging from intern to research assistant to post-doc to visiting faculty.  Only U.S. citizens and permanent legal residents of the United States are eligible for these positions.  The PALM team conducts basic and applied cognitive science research, using mathematical and computational cognitive process modeling to understand, replicate, and predict human performance and learning. 

We have active research efforts underway in all of the following areas:
  - mathematical models of learning and forgetting
  - spatial competence for orientation and navigation in virtual environments
  - fatigue and the human cognitive system
  - natural language comprehension and generation
  - complex task modeling and situated action
  - distributed and high performance computing for cognitive science

We are expanding our research portfolio to include:
  - large scale cognitive modeling for systems of systems engineering
  - robust decision making

Anyone interested in a position with the PALM team is encouraged to talk with Scott Douglass, Kevin Gluck, Glenn Gunzelmann, Tiffany Jastrzembski, Don Lyon, or Chris Myers at the International Conference on Cognitive Modeling in Manchester or at the Cognitive Science Conference in Amsterdam.
