Updated: about 2 years ago
Job Type: Temporary
Deadline: 08 Apr 2022

Human language is the most powerful communication system that evolution has produced. A profound understanding of it is valuable to current societal challenges as it is the basis of cultural and social life. Would you like to contribute to actually using this knowledge in societal solutions? As a postdoctoral researcher, you will connect the expertise of our Language in Interaction consortium to larger (inter)national collaborations aimed at societally relevant applications.
The Language in Interaction research consortium invites applications for a senior postdoctoral position. Work Package 7 connects the expertise of Language in Interaction to societal partners. In this way, research outcomes are translated into applications for society.

This position is meant to identify topics and research lines with the perspective of translation for societal applications. You will perform a thematically orientated literature search geared to identifying translational possibilities within the consortium. Also, you will assist in preparing and writing grant proposals for societal impact programmes in the Netherlands and Europe. Along these lines, you will contribute to using consortium knowledge in societal applications.

You will act in close collaboration with Esther Steenbeek, coordinator of Work Package 7 and Peter Hagoort, programme director of the consortium.
