The Cognitive Neuroscience Sector at SISSA, in Trieste, Italy, seeks
to recruit 2 independent group leaders, one to carry out research in
Brain and Language and the other in Cognitive Neuroscience of Social
Behaviour. The positions are for 3 years, renewable for 3 more.

The call for applications, in Italian for bureaucratic reasons, is
available at http://www.sissa.it/main/?p=A3_B4&id=933, with deadline
February 28. Candidates are sought worldwide, and all academic
activities at SISSA are conducted in English.

SISSA is one of the three purely postgraduate and postdoctoral
institutions within the Italian university system, consistently ranked
at the top by measures ranging from publications to external funding to
visibility outside of Italy. It is keen to enhance its international
character and its intellectual diversity. The Sector currently has 25 PhD
students supported on SISSA fellowships, over half of whom are not Italians.
Postdocs, however, are normally supported by individual research funding.
Faculty members are required to teach limited PhD mini-courses, and to
individually supervise the research of students in their groups. Further
information about the Sector can be found on the http://www.sissa.it/cns/
and informal inquiries are welcome, e.g. by e-mail to
alessandrotreves at gmail.com, with a CV attached, or by phone +39-040-3787623
