A position in the Swartz Center for Computational Neuroscience, in the
Institute for Neural Computation, UCSD, is available immediately. The topic
is *EEG brain dynamics underlying gestural communication*. The applicant
will work with Dr. Rafael Núñez (Dept. of Cognitive Science) and Dr. Scott
Makeig (Institute for Neural Computation) to construct, run, and analyze
first experiments on gestural communication using the new Mobile Brain/Body
Imaging concept (Makeig et al., *Int J Psychophysiol*, 2009) based on
concepts of embodied cognition (Núñez, 2008, *Handbook of Cognitive Science:
An Embodied Approach*). The ideal candidate would have a degree in some
cognitive science-related discipline--particularly in natural language,
gesture, and non-verbal communication-- plus computational skills that will
allow him or her to interact with the rest of team working with
computational methods and EEG analysis. Results will contribute to basic
cognitive neuroscience, with possible applications to brain-computer
interface design.

Applicants should send their applications (CV, statement of purpose, and
names of two potential references) by January 31th 2010 to:

Dr. Rafael Núñez
(nunez at cogsci.ucsd.edu)
Department of Cognitive Science
University of California, San Diego
La Jolla, CA 92093
U.S.A.
