Postdoctoral Fellowship Available

by Cathy Mondloch

I would appreciate it very much if you could share this information with potential candidates. Thank you, Cathy Mondloch Brock University POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP Area: Face Perception A postdoctoral fellowship is available in the Infant and Child Development Lab at Brock University to investigate face perception in participants between 3 and 80 years of age, under the supervision of Cathy Mondloch, PhD. Applicants must have completed a Ph.D. in perceptual/developmental psychology by the start date, have strong training in face perception, and a willingness to develop expertise with a range of new technologies. Funding is available for three years through an NSERC Discovery Accelerator Supplement Award given to Cathy Mondloch. The Infant and Child Development Lab is part of the Lifespan Development Center and the Center for Neuroscience at Brock University. Members of the lab investigate the development of expert face processing and the role of experience in driving that development. A recent grant from the Canada Foundation for Innovation provided funding for several pieces of cutting-edge technology (a 3D camera, a 4D camera, two eye-trackers, Noldus Observer). The postdoctoral fellow will assume responsibility for integrating this technology into our research program, design and conduct new studies and join on-going projects. The successful applicant will be part of a collaborative team of postdocs, graduate students, undergraduate students and research assistants, with opportunities for interactions with a broad array of research teams in psychology, the Centre for Neuroscience, and the Lifespan Centre. Start Date: Winter/Spring 2012 Please submit a CV, cover letter with a statement of interest and research experience, and names and contact information of 3 referees to: Cathy Mondloch, Department of Psychology, Brock University, 500 Glenridge Avenue, St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada, L2S 3A1.

research fellowships in McKone face lab

by Elinor McKone

Hi everyone, There is an opportunity to apply for a 4 year research fellowship in my lab. It's through a government scheme called Future Fellowships (information at http://www.arc.gov.au/ncgp/futurefel/ future_default.htm), which is open to everyone between 5 and 15 years out of PhD regardless of nationality. The applications are due in November. Funding includes salary, plus $50k per year in research costs. Note the Australian dollar currently equals .98 US$, and .73 Euro. To be competitive, applicants will need a good track record of publications (e.g., I would guess a minimum of 12 papers in the last 5 years, 2007-2011/inpress; and generally in good journals). If you are interested, please contact me ASAP. See my website below for information on the lab. There is also a related fellowship program for early career researchers (0 to 5 years out from PhD), for which applications are likely to be due somewhere between Feb and May next year (2012). See: http://www.arc.gov.au/ncgp/decra.htm Please feel free to forward this email to others.

face space

by Gyula Kovacs

Dear Colleagues, I am wondering if there is anywhere on the internet a freely accessible tool with which one could create a "face-space" a-la Leopold et al, (2001), e.g. as a Matlab toolbox or any other way. What i would need is something into which i can put a given number of faces and it creates the space with its anti-face versions etc. Thanks in advance for any information. -- Gyula Kovacs Dept.Cognitive Sciences Budapest Univ.

Oxford Handbook of Face Perception

by Andy Young

Hi all, I just received my copy of the recently published 'Oxford Handbook of Face Perception', edited by Andy Calder, Gill Rhodes, Mark Johnson and Jim Haxby (OUP, 2011). See http://ukcatalogue.oup.com/product/9780199559053.do Here's what the publishers say about it: 'The Oxford Handbook of Face Perception is the most comprehensive and commanding review of the field ever published. It looks at the functional and neural mechanisms underlying the perception, representation, and interpretation of facial characteristics, such as identity, expression, eye gaze, attractiveness, personality, and race. It examines the development of these processes, their neural correlates in both human and non-human primates, congenital and acquired disorders resulting from their breakdown, and the theoretical and computational frameworks for their underlying mechanisms. With chapters by an international team of leading authorities from the brain sciences, the book is a landmark publication on face perception.' Unusually, most of the hyperbole is valid. This is a book that many of us will be wanting to dip into for the background to aspects of face perception we don't know so well, or just to get someone else's take on our own pet topic. It's not cheap, of course, but you can try to get your library to buy it. Definitely worth checking out, anyway. Cheers, Andy Young.

Looking for Asian neutral faces stimuli set

by Christy Reece

Hello, I'm a psychology research Masters student and I'm looking at in-group/out-group ratings of faces, which I intend to manipulate through priming. The group is determined by ethnicity and I will be asking ethnically Chinese individuals to participate. I have a set of neutral Chinese faces and I am now looking for a second set of neutral Asian faces that I can use for comparison. The second set of faces must be clearly distinct from the Chinese faces, so my current preference would be for a set of Indian stimuli, however I am open to using any Asian stimuli set other than faces that are ethnically Japanese since the face structure is too similar to Chinese. I would really appreciate some help getting this second set of stimuli. If anyone one has a stimuli set or knows of one referenced in an article can you please let me know? Full credit will of course be given to the creator of the stimuli set. Thanks and Regards, Christy -- Christy Reece Research Assistant National University of Singapore Department of Psychology AS5-04-21 ph: 8246 0526

Prosopagnosia papers

by creusot

Hi, Im a PhD student in computer science working on 3D face landmarking and recognition. I am looking for scientific articles on prosopagnosia and on the difference between face recognition and object recognition in the brain. This is probably the right mailing-list to ask. What I am looking for is review articles about research on prosopagnosia so that I can redirect my readers (if they are interested) to the whole corpus of literature by citing one or two articles. As it is not my field it is difficult for me to distinguish between the good and less good papers on that subject. I'm sure your expertise can help. Please contact me if you have some articles to suggest. Best regards, Clement Creusot.
