Department of Comparative Language Science_
**Postdoc Position in Neural Diversity Generation**

The NCCR is a Swiss National Center of Competence in Research with the goal of creating a new discipline, Evolutionary Language Science, that targets the past and future of language. The center consists of leading scientists from traditionally separated academic domains, which allows us to harvest the diverse expertise from the humanities, social sciences, computational sciences, natural sciences and medicine towards a broadscale interdisciplinary collaboration.

The Neural Diversity Generation Task takes a species-wide perspective probing the neuro-cognitive systems that allow changes, diversity and malleability of linguistic features.

The NCCR Evolving Language places great emphasis on teamwork and multidisciplinary perspectives. Strong communication and collaboration skills are essential. Excellent oral and written communication in English is required.

**What we offer**: UZH offers excellent opportunities and strong support for career development. Salaries are internationally competitive: Salary ranges, guidelines for employees in SNF-funded projects (PDF).

The position is limited to two years with potential extension by agreement.

We take gender balance and diversity seriously in our hiring decisions.

**Place of work**: The positions are primarily located at the Department of Comparative Language Science at the University of Zurich (UZH) but the NCCR supports exchange with other departments in its network, particularly with the neuroscience community at the University of Geneva.

**Start of employment**: Employment start date is September 2024 or soon thereafter.
- a detailed CV
- transcripts from your previous studies and/or copy of highest academic diploma
- (if available) a maximum of two samples of your own work (e.g., masters thesis, scientific essays / student research papers / publications; either send the full pdf or provide a link to the resources if available online)
