postdoc slots at University of Rochester

[Richard Aslin]

THE UNIVERSITY
OF ROCHESTER

The University of Rochester seeks five or more outstanding 
postdoctoral fellows with research interests in several areas of the 
Cognitive Sciences, including language, learning, and development. 
Two NIH training grants provide support.  (1) An NIH training grant 
is affiliated with the Center for the Sciences of Language.  The 
Center brings together faculty and students with interests in spoken 
and signed languages from the Departments of Brain and Cognitive 
Sciences, Computer Science, Linguistics, and Philosophy, as well as 
the interdepartmental program in Neuroscience.  We encourage 
applicants from any of these disciplines who have expertise in any 
area of natural language.  We are particularly interested in 
postdoctoral fellows who want to contribute to an interdisciplinary 
community.  (2) A second NIH training grant spans the disciplines of 
Learning and Developmental Plasticity.  Applicants should have 
expertise in human or animal research on learning and developmental 
plasticity or in computational modeling.  Contributing faculty are in 
the Departments of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, Computer Science, 
and the interdepartmental program in Neuroscience.

All fellowships are open only to US citizens or permanent residents. 
Applicants should send a letter describing their graduate training 
and research interests, a curriculum vitae, and arrange to have three 
letters of recommendation sent to:

Professor Richard N. Aslin
Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences
Meliora Hall
University of Rochester
Rochester, NY 14627-0268.

Review of applications will begin on January 15, 2002 and continue 
until all of the positions are filled, with expected start dates 
ranging from June 30 to September 1, 2002.
