The Phonology and Reading lab at Northeastern University is now seeking
applicants for graduate training in the lab. Our research examines the
representation of phonological universals in the human brain and their
interaction with reading ability. Research in the lab is strongly
interdisciplinary and multifaceted?we use the tools of experimental psychology
to test formal linguistic models of phonology, and we employ a variety of
experimental methods, including both behavioral and neuroimaging techniques
applied to a variety of populations, ranging from adults to infants. For further
information about current research projects and recent publications, please

will be enrolled in the PhD program of the Department of Psychology,
Northeastern University. All graduate students in the program are fully
supported for a period of five years. We encourage applications from students
in a variety of disciplines, including psychology, linguistics, computer science
and biology. For inquiries, please contact the PI, Dr. Iris Berent,
