We are seeking a postdoctoral associate to contribute to a multi-year project funded by the
Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR) examining EEG markers of speech
processing in children, and their relationship to reading and language impairments such as
dyslexia and DLD.

The candidate will join a diverse team of researchers in cognitive
neuroscience, computational neuroscience, and communication sciences and disorders, led
by Drs. Marc Joanisse, Laura Batterink, Blake Butler and Janis Oram.

Our research program involves collecting and analyzing EEG to natural speech in children ages 3- to 8-years,
alongside measures of cognitive and language development, with a focus on multivariate
temporal response functions (mTRFs) and related models linking auditory data to EEGs.

The candidate will also analyze the relationships between brain and behavioral measures to better
understand how EEG measures of speech relate to typical and impaired reading and language
development. 

In addition to contributing to the project, the candidate will have the opportunity
to investigate additional research questions within the fields of cognitive and computational
neuroscience and communication sciences and disorders.
