We’re looking for a highly motivated student, ideally (but not necessarily) with some experience or exposure to neuroscientific methods (such as EEG or fMRI). A strong background in cognitive psychology and an interest in psycholinguistics or cognition more broadly is essential. Please send informal inquiries to Prof. Gerry Altmann.

A big thanks to all the Altmann lab members who presented or attended the 10th Annual University of Connecticut Language Fest!
