Each successful applicant will have an international profile and will have a track record of high-impact publications since completing his/her Ph.D. Applications are invited from all qualified persons, but we are seeking to build on three existing international strengths of the Edinburgh Psychology Department: Differential Psychology, Psychology of Language, and Human Cognitive Neuroscience.

Based on the brief advert you might wonder where vision comes in. The department is organised in 3 major research groups, and these are the once mentioned in the ad: Human Cognitive Neuroscience, Psychology of Language, and Differential Psychology (see http://www.psy.ed.ac.uk/psy_research/index.php). Vision/ visual cognition is part of the Human Cognitive Neuroscience "bubble". For example, we have extensive eye-tracking facilities and a new EEG lab allowing the co-registration of EEG and eye movements.
