Applications are welcomed for two researcher positions at doctoral or postdoctoral level at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences (MPI-CBS) in Leipzig, Germany, in the Neural Mechanisms of Human Communication group led by Katharina von Kriegstein.
PhD student or Postdoctoral Position in Neuroscience of Developmental Dyslexia:
The objective of the research project is to use functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and behavioural intervention training to understand the role of auditory and visual sensory processing in populations with developmental dyslexia. Further information on the position can be found here: http://www.cbs.mpg.de/489916/job_full_offer_10626437?c=7390
PhD student or Postdoctoral position in Neuroscience of Autism Spectrum Disorder:
The objective of the research project is to use high-resolution functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and behavioural tests to understand the role of auditory and visual sensory processing in populations with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Further information on the position can be found here: http://www.cbs.mpg.de/490195/job_full_offer_10626459?c=7390
Both positions are funded by an ERC-Consolidator grant.

Dear Members of the mailing list,
I am about to start a project on face recognition in humans, and a part of this project requires to create different average faces (variation according to age and ethnic group).
In order to increase the representativity of our average faces, I am looking for databases of faces with known characteristics (at least date of birth of the participant and date of picture taken, as well as age and ethnic group). Ideally, the pictures would have been taken in front of a uniform background.
Many thanks in advance for your kind help,
Christophe Bousquet
