一、our commitment

As London’s Global University, we know diversity fosters creativity and innovation, and we want our community to represent the diversity of the world’s talent.

The postholder will contribute to a programme of work focussed on “Uncovering how central cognitive pathways interact with hearing loss” which is funded by Wellcome. The overarching aim of this programme of work is to understand how hearing loss interacts with auditory cognitive effects on speech-in-noise perception, using behaviour, neuroimaging, and computational modelling. The post is available for 3 years in the first instance, with the possibility of an extension.

三、About YouThe appointed candidate will have a demonstrated interest in speech perception and auditory attention, and how these processes are affected by hearing loss. They will have a PhD (or will have submitted their PhD thesis for examination) in a relevant subject (e.g., psychology, neuroscience, linguistics) prior to starting the post, a developing track record of academic dissemination activities, and some prior experience with neuroimaging analyses. They will be able to statistically analyse data using appropriate software and will be willing to learn to use other software as needed.
