Post-Doc Position: Computational Neuroscience of Language

[James A. Reggia]

Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Computational Neuroscience of Language

A post-doctoral fellowship position is available in the area of
computational modeling of the neurobiological basis of language.
The fellowship can begin summer/fall of 2000, and is jointly 
at the Neurology Dept. (Baltimore campus) and Computer Science
Dept. (near Washington DC) of the University of Maryland.
Research in this position could focus on any topic related to 
normal or impaired language, although we have special interest in 
areas such as cerebral specialization, reading disorders, origins 
of language, aphasia recovery following stroke, and functional 
imaging correlates of language.  Applicants are expected to have 
a recent PhD in either a biological/cognitive/linguistic discipline 
or a computational discipline (e.g., computer science, applied 
mathematics, physics, engineering).  US citizenship is required.  
For full consideration, applications should be received by May 26, 
2000.  To apply, send two copies (*hard copies only*) of a CV and 
research interest statement, how to contact you by mail/fax/email/phone, 
and the names and contact information of two references to: James A. 
Reggia, Dept. of Computer Science, A. V. Williams Bldg., University of 
Maryland, College Park, MD 20742 USA.  Questions may be directed to
