RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP IN VISUAL COGNITION

The University of Edinburgh, UK, invites applications for a one year  
post-doctoral research fellowship in visual cognition. Applications  
are invited for a full-time Research Fellow for a fixed-term of one  
year.  Supported by a grant from the ESRC, the successful applicant to  
this post will be involved in the study of the mechanisms that mediate  
between goal-oriented and stimulus-driven control of gaze during  
real-world scene perception. The study will be led by Dr. James  
Brockmole and Prof. John Henderson.  The successful applicant will be  
responsible for designing, running, and analysing eyetracking  
experiments with gaze-contingent display change paradigms and will  
have the opportunity to contribute to all other aspects of the  
research, including conceptualization of studies and dissemination of  
research through journals and conference presentations.  The  
successful applicant will also have the potential to collaborate  
actively with other members of the visual cognition community in one  
of the leading centres for cognitive science, neuroscience, cognition  
and computation worldwide, based in one of the most attractive and  
culturally rich cities in Europe.
