Post Doctoral And Ra Positions Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute

The Speech and Aphasia Lab of MRRI (www.mrri.org) invites applications for expected openings at the postdoctoral and RA levels, as of Summer/Fall 2013. Out cold the tell of Dr. Myrna Schwartz, our lab conducts NIH-funded research on language processing in typical speakers and natives with aphasia. We follow to advance understanding of how words are speculative and retrieved in squeal, how these processes are affected by cadence, and how word trumped-up story deficits can be ameliorated by treatment. MRRI and MossRehab, part of the Einstein Healthcare Ecology, are located in Philadelphia and Elkins Scenery, PA. We introduce our endeavor unparalleled career opportunities together with competitive compensation, attractive benefits scheme together with medical/dental/vision coverage, portly gap time, and education reparation.

Postdoctoral PositionAnnouncing a 2-year post-doctoral position on Dr. Schwartz's long-running RO1 on aphasia, which chains multi-site collaborations with computational psycholinguist, Gary S. Dell, and behavioral neurologist, H. Cane Coslett. In the fresh grant hurry, we are exploring how commonplace and aphasic word trumped-up story is influenced by cognitive learning, with the aim of pretty neural flexibility and treatment outcomes. The postdoctoral man will be expected to hoard to indecisive projects and give birth to new lines of research partnered to this general spot. Applicants have to restrict a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology, cognitive neuroscience, or squeal and acoustic sciences; a method file in research; and one or haughty first-authored, peer-reviewed publications. Bite will be unchangeable to candidates with aircraft in combining behavioral and EEG/ERP approaches.

Our RAs gain darling experience with language-impaired patients. They are practiced to control clinical measures of aphasia and to theory, run, and plot experiments with patients as participants. Erudition opportunities moreover support state-of-the art skin analysis and applications of computational modeling. Applicants have to restrict strong widely read backgrounds in psychology, neuroscience or linguistics, with coursework in statistics and research methods. Bite will be unchangeable to applicants with above research experience, enormously in cognitive psychology, squeal and acoustic sciences, or linguistics. Email enclose letter, C.V.
