[FieldTrip] PhD position & post-doc position at MPI for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen, The Netherlands

[Drijvers, L. (Linda)]

Dear FieldTrip community,

We currently have 1 PhD position (4 years) and 1 post-doc position (3 years) open at the Communicative Brain group and the Neurobiology of Language Department, MPI for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.

PhD position
The PhD project will investigate the neurobiological basis of multimodal language comprehension and production in interactive, face-to-face communication. Specifically, you will investigate whether and how oscillatory neural activity plays a mechanistic role in integrating auditory and visual signals within and between conversational partners, and whether behavioural and neural synchronization are important for (successful) communication. These questions will be addressed by using new cutting-edge techniques, including dual-EEG, MEG, rapid invisible frequency tagging, and detailed behavioural analyses of auditory and visual signals in interactive contexts.

Postdoctoral researcher
The successful applicant will investigate the neurobiological basis of how listeners integrate auditory and visual signals from (multiple) conversational partners, and how listeners distribute their attention to these auditory and visual signals during face-to-face interaction. To do so, you will use a new, cutting-edge technique called rapid invisible frequency tagging, in combination with dual-EEG and MEG, to study the role of low-frequency neural oscillations in this process.

Starting date is Jan/Feb 2021, please contact me in case you have any questions, and feel free to forward this to any potential candidates!

Best wishes,
Linda Drijvers
