The Perception and Active Cognition Lab at New York University Abu Dhabi is
looking for a postdoctoral associate for a project looking at visual
factors and eye movements in the recognition of Arabic words. Qualified
candidates with a master's degree and research experience can apply for the
Research Assistant level position.

The successful applicant will drive a fascinating project on the role of
prediction and parafoveal previews across eye movements in the rapid
recognition of Arabic words and other visual stimuli.

The candidate will work in a multidisciplinary environment with world-class
research infrastructure, including EEG, MEG and MRI, consisting of
PhD-level scientists, graduate students and undergraduate students, with
the project also involving faculty from Psychology, Computer Science and
Arabic Language.

Applicants must have a PhD in Psychology, Linguistics, Neuroscience,
Computer Science or related field. Required expertise includes strong
knowledge of psycho/neuro-linguistics and/or visual perception, as well as
experience with eyetracking and with EEG/MEG.

The terms of employment are very competitive and include housing and
educational subsidies for children. The salary and benefits are highly
competitive and the research infrastructure is world-class. Abu Dhabi is a
great place to live, with warm weather year round and lots to do, and the
Abu Dhabi - Dubai area is one of the most visited holiday destinations in
the world. Collaboration and visits to other campuses in the New York
University Global Network is encouraged but not required.

Applications will be accepted immediately and candidates will be considered
until the position is filled. To be considered, all applicants must submit,
via interfolio, a cover letter, curriculum vitae, transcript of degree, a
one-page summary of research accomplishments and interests, and the names
of the three reference writers (or, ideally, at least two written
references) all in PDF format.
