Postdoctoral Fellow Reading Research

项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The postdoctoral program in reading acquisition and reading disabilities at Haskins Laboratories will provide research training, a supportive research environment, and opportunities for advanced coursework at affiliated universities. The range of research opportunities, the nature of the research involvement, and the choice of coursework (if any) will be tailored for each fellow. On entry into the program, fellows will establish an informal advisory committee that will provide guidance and support for the fellow's research plans and course of study. Fellows may initially choose to participate in an ongoing research project at the Laboratories; however, they may instead undertake their own project. Postdoctoral fellows will be encouraged to attend the regular research colloquia at Haskins that take place nearly every week. The lectures feature speakers from around the world as well as researchers on the staff at Haskins. In the past, a broad array of topics on language and literacy has been addressed in the colloquia including neuropsychological and genetic studies of reading, intervention research, studies of speech perception and production, investigations of syntactic development, and much more. Although taking courses is not the central aim of the postdoctoral training, individuals may wish to broaden or deepen their expertise in specific areas relevant to their research and professional goals. Course options are available at Yale University, University of Connecticut and University of Rhode Island. The duration of the training will be two years, and we expect to accept two post doctoral fellows into the program in each of four years. Relevance: the abilities to read and write are critical to individuals' chances for success in our society. We are bringing to bear findings of scientifically based reading research to class room instruction. Our plan is to train scientists to assist in this goal by enhancing relevant scientific knowledge and by helping to implement the knowledge in the classroom.

描述（由申请人提供）：Haskins Laboratories阅读收购和阅读障碍的博士后计划将提供研究培训，支持性的研究环境以及在附属大学的高级课程工作的机会。研究机会的范围，研究参与的性质以及课程的选择（如果有）将为每个家伙量身定制。进入该计划时，研究员将建立一个非正式的咨询委员会，该委员会将为同伴的研究计划和研究过程提供指导和支持。研究员最初可能会选择参加实验室正在进行的研究项目；但是，他们可能会进行自己的项目。博士后研究员将被鼓励参加几乎每周举行的Haskins的常规研究座谈会。这些讲座的特色是来自世界各地的演讲者以及哈斯金斯工作人员的研究人员。过去，座谈会中已经解决了有关语言和扫盲的广泛主题，包括对阅读的神经心理学和遗传研究，干预研究，言语感知和生产研究，句法发展的研究等等。尽管参加课程并不是博士后培训的核心目的，但个人可能希望扩大或加深与研究和专业目标有关的特定领域的专业知识。耶鲁大学，康涅狄格大学和罗德岛大学提供课程选择。培训的持续时间为两年，我们希望在四年中接受两个博士后研究员。相关性：阅读和写作的能力对于个人在我们社会中成功的机会至关重要。我们将基于科学的阅读研究的发现带到了课堂教学。我们的计划是培训科学家，通过增强相关科学知识并帮助实施课堂知识来帮助实现这一目标。
