Please don't use REPLY. Email enquiries to humphrgw@uk.ac.bham.ibm3090 If you know of any bright students who might want to do a PhD in Cognitive Science/HCI at Birmingham University, starting this October, please pass this on. I believe two of the three studentships have now been allocated, so applicants should act quickly. Supervision will be shared between Schools if appropriate, including Computer Science, Philosophy etc. Computing facilities are shared between Computer Science and Psychology. Joint Research Council studentships are available for research projects in Cognitive Science at the University of Birmingham, from October 1991. The studentships should be linked to research on one of the following topics: computational modelling of emotion, surface-based based procedures for object recognition, linguistic control of speech synthesis, computational modelling of motion perception, neural network modelling of visual attention or visual word recognition, design tools for computer menus. Likely supervisors for the projects listed include Glyn Humphreys, William Edmondson, Mike Harris, Ela Claridge, Jane Riddoch, Aaron Sloman. Interested applicants should contact Professor Glyn Humphreys, Cognitive Science Research Centre, School of Psychology, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham B15 2TT.
