    About the role

    Two Post-Doctoral Research Fellow positions are available in the Visual Communication Group at the UCL Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience. The roles are offered for 3yrs in the first instance. The roles offer a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of developing cutting-edge technology and to lead on ground-breaking programmes of research. 1.

The project will address research questions regarding 1) similarity in neural representations between language inputs and 2) cortical entrainment to language inputs in deaf and hearing children. 2.

The research will investigate BSL, spoken English (visual/ audio-visual) and written English. The post-holders will be expected to lead on all aspects of the efficient delivery of the research programmes: experimental design, participant recruitment, data collection, data quality, data management and data analysis.
