Subject: [AUDITORY] Postdoc position in neuroscience and computational linguistics at University of Geneva From: =?UTF-8?Q?Timoth=C3=A9e_Proix?= <timothee.proix@xxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 3 Sep 2021 11:42:50 +0200Dear all,=20 The Swiss National Center for Competence in Research 'Evolving Language'= , which involves nearly 40 different research groups from a large variet= y of disciplines across Switzerland, seeks to fill a two-year postdoc po= sition in neuroscience and computational linguistics. The position is pa= rt of the work package "Structure Planning", led by Anne-Lise Giraud in = collaboration with the University of Z=C3=BCrich and other NCCR members. The post-doc will primarily work at the University of Geneva (Campus Bio= tech) in Giraud's lab but will also spend time at the Department of Comp= arative Linguistics at the University of Zurich. Our goal is to understand how hierarchical syntactic structures are gene= rated during speaking in the brain. The postdoc will use intracranial EE= G data (e.g. neural oscillations) to study the neural underpinnings of s= yntactic planning processes in (mostly French) narrative speech, integra= ting methods from corpus and computational linguistics (e.g. machine lea= rning techniques, information-theoretic measures, etc.) with EEG signals= and speech patterns.
