Brain Sciences at Colgate University is seeking applications for a full-time
lab manager/lab tech for its Perception, Action, and Language (PAL) Laboratory.<span> </span>The PAL lab is a common space across the labs
of Bruce C Hansen and Spencer D Kelly, and is focused on VEP/ERP, high-definition
tDCS, and eye-tracking methodology.<span>
</span>Research conducted in the lab is generally focused on two major themes:
1) How early low-level visual signals provide distinctive codes for different
visual environments, and how such codes contribute to the formation of rapid
perceptual inference, and 2) how bodily actions influence language production
and comprehension during communication and learning.<span></span></span></p>
