Postdoctoral Position in Visual Attention with Shaun Vecera, University 
of Iowa

Applications are invited for an NSF-funded postdoctoral position in the 
Vecera Laboratory at the University of Iowa Department of Psychology. 
The lab's research investigates the mechanisms of attentional control, 
primarily using behavioral methods.  The research team includes Dr. Toby 
Mordkoff (University of Iowa) and Dr. Catherine Reed (Claremont McKenna 
College), and we are seeking an individual with a strong background in 
theories and methods of visual attention and/or visual cognition.

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in cognition or cognitive neuroscience, 
coupled with a good publication record.  Experience with programming 
experiments and performing analyses (preferably using Matlab and the 
Psychophysics toolbox) is required.

The laboratory is a part of the Iowa Vision Group, which includes 
several faculty who specialize in visual perception, attention, and 
object representation and provides an engaging intellectual environment.

The position will remain open until a suitable candidate is identified. 
  Start date is negotiable.  Interested applicants should send a CV, 
research statement, and the names of three referees to shaun-vecera <at>
