The goal is to understand both the universality and the variability of the human language faculty from genes to behaviour.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>The Netherlands has an outstanding track record in the language sciences. This research consortium sponsored by a large grant from the Netherlands Organization for Scientific research (NWO) brings together many of the excellent research groups in the Netherlands with a research programme on the foundations of language. The research team consists of 43 Principal Investigators. In addition to the excellence in the domain of language and related relevant fields of cognition, our consortium provides state-of-the-art research facilities and a research team with ample experience in the complex research methods that will be invoked to address the scientific questions at the highest level of methodological sophistication. These include methods from genetics, neuroimaging, computational modelling, and patient-related research. This consortium realizes both quality and critical mass for studying human language at a scale not easily found anywhere else.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>Currently, the consortium advertises nine PhD positions for a period of 4 years. These positions provide the opportunity for conducting world-class research as a member of an interdisciplinary team.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 13px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); "><br><br></span><i>Closing date for application: February 2, 2014<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></i><br><br><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT541"><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT553"></span></span><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT554"></span><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT555"><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT829"></span></span><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT830"><a href="http://www.ru.nl/vacatures/details/details_vacature_0?recid=529314" target="_blank"></a></span><a href="http://www.ru.nl/vacatures/details/details_vacature_0?recid=529314">Click here for more information on the PhD positions and how to apply.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></a><br><br>(url =<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT542"><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT556"><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT831"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.ru.nl/vacatures/details/details_vacature_0?recid=529314">http://www.ru.nl/vacatures/details/details_vacature_0?recid=529314</a></span></span></span>)<br><br><div><br><span name="x"></span></div></div></div></span></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
