Postdoctoral fellow: Georgetown University Neuroscience of Language training program (Washington, DC) Georgetown University’s new Neuroscience of Language T32 training program <https://sites.google.com/georgetown.edu/neuro-lang> is seeking postdoctoral fellows. The Neuroscience of Language program provides training in the brain basis of language, as well as sensory, motor, and cognitive systems as they pertain to language and communication. Georgetown has a number of faculty focused on Neuroscience of Language research, ranging from basic work on auditory or language processing (spoken, signed, and written language) to clinical trials in adults and children with brain injuries affecting language. Interactions with Georgetown’s highly regarded Linguistics Department, as well as Children’s National Hospital and MedStar National Rehabilitation Hospital, provide us with access to additional faculty and research populations and further enrich the training environment. Individuals with doctoral degrees from any field related to Neuroscience of Language (Neuroscience, Cognitive Science, Linguistics, Psychology, Communication Disorders, etc.) are encouraged to apply. Fellows will be supported for two years and will develop an individualized training plan to provide expertise across disciplines important to Neuroscience of Language research. Fellows will take coursework as needed and will participate in a regular journal club and seminar series, clinical experiences, community engagement activities, and professional development activities, in addition to conducting research in the neuroscience of language. The overall goal of the program is to develop well-rounded scientists who have a broad perspective on basic and clinical Neuroscience of Language. Fellows will work with one or more of the following investigators: Drs. Thomas Coate, Guinevere Eden, Rhonda Friedman, William Gaillard, Anna Greenwald, Xiong Jiang, Elissa Newport, Josef Rauschecker, Max Riesenhuber, Ella Striem-Amit, Ted Supalla, Peter Turkeltaub, and Michael Ullman. Collaborations among our faculty are common and a strength of our program. Appointments are funded at standard NIH NRSA stipend rates, with an initial one-year term to be renewed for an additional year if fellows meet the program requirements. U.S. citizens or permanent residents who currently hold a doctoral degree or will have met all doctoral program requirements before starting the program are eligible to apply. Individuals from groups recognized to be underrepresented in the sciences are encouraged to apply <http://www.nsf.gov/statistics/wmpd/>. Please submit the following application materials via the application form <https://forms.gle/eEBab9cYSGwYYmrk7>. - CV - Personal statement describing career goals, prior research, goals for postdoctoral training, and lab(s) of interest (3 pages) - Names and contact information for three references - Writing sample (manuscript or dissertation) Contact Dr. Peter Turkeltaub ([email protected]) with any questions about the program or eligibility. Contact Rachel Galginaitis ( [email protected]) with questions about the application process. -- Nathan Schneider Assistant Professor of Linguistics and Computer Science, Georgetown University http://nathan.cl
