CLOSING DATE: 17th June 2011

Project Summary "Dynamic Mental Representations of Motion Events in Sentence Processing"

When we hear or read a sentence that describes an object moving from one place to another, we have to keep in memory where the object was initially, then where it is after the movement, in order to understand the event described in the sentence. The present research will closely investigate how we construct such representations as the sentence unfolds. The project proposes a series of experiments that attempt to uncover potential ‘mental simulation' processes in understanding linguistically described motion events. Some experiments, for example, investigate whether listeners' attention shifts can be modulated by the shape of the trajectory of the object in motion (e.g., the ball will be thrown/rolled into the pond). To do so, various methods are used to track attention shifts: standard ‘visual-world' eye-movement tracking techniques to explore listeners' overt attention shifts, as well as other methods to capture more 'covert' attention shifts, focusing on the time-course of the processing to establish how automatic these processes are. Other experiments also aim at comparing the processes by which people represent motion events in spoken language versus written language. Altogether the research will have implications for wider issues, such as cognitive representation theories, cognitive development, and language-vision interactions.

PhD Studentship in Robust Turbomachinery Design Optimisation
Limit of tenure: 3 years

Applications are invited for a funded PhD studentship in robust turbomachinery design optimisation.

Computational methods for engineering design optimisation advance year-on-year in parallel with advances in computer hardware. Improvements in the fidelity and speed of evaluation tools and in the capabilities of optimisation/search algorithms are enabling high-fidelity analysis tools to be exploited earlier and to greater benefit in the design process. This project will integrate state-of-the-art methods for uncertainty quantification with high-fidelity simulation tools used for the aerothermal design of turbomachinery by Rolls-Royce and test the effectiveness of the resulting enhanced design capability on representative real-world applications.

This studentship is funded by EPSRC and Rolls Royce plc as a Dorothy Hodgkin Postgraduate Award. Funding for this studentship is restricted to students from India, China, Hong Kong, South Africa, Brazil, Russia and the developing world.

Applicants should have at least a 2.1 (or equivalent) degree in a relevant discipline and meet the University's entrance requirements for graduate study. Enquiries and initial applications should be directed to Dr Geoff Parks, Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge, Trumpington Street, Cambridge, CB2 1PZ. Email: gtp10@cam.ac.uk. Telephone: +44 (0)1223 748553

University of Central Lancashire - School of Art, Design and Performance

Capturing the early modern body: discourses of embodiment in Shakespearean performance
Reference No: INT-044Tunstall

Applications are invited for a full-time scholarship available in the School of Art, design and performance. The scholarship is tenable for up to 3 years for a PhD (via MPhil route) [subject to satisfactory progress] and due to funding reasons is open to international applicants only. UK/EU applicants are not eligible to apply. The scholarship will provide £15000 towards the cost of the International tuition fee over 3 years.

Project Title: Capturing the early modern body: discourses of embodiment in Shakespearean performance

Project Description:

In recent years a new field has begun to emerge in Shakespeare studies, as scholars have attempted to discover how the theory and practice of theatrical gesture may have impacted upon the performance of his writing - as witnessed in the Globe Theatre Education Department's first gesture Lab in October 2010. However, while much of this scholarly work necessarily remains speculative, any attempt to make a conceptual map of Shakespearean ‘embodied writing' must eventually ask: how did the early modern actor move?

This project seeks to address this question by engaging with a cultural history of early modern embodiment through experiments using motion capture technology. Drawing upon a range of visual and literary reference materials including art works, anatomical manuals, rhetorical treatises on gesture, and texts both by and about Shakespearean performance, the project seeks to uncover how early modern performance in England was marked by (and perhaps influenced) changing discourses of the body-in-motion.

Applicants should have, or expect to receive a qualification equivalent to a high class UK honours degree.

Informal project related enquiries may be directed to Darren Tunstall email dvtunstall@uclan.ac.uk Tel 01772 895998

Application Forms can be found at: www.uclan.ac.uk/studentships

Completed application forms should be emailed to researchdegrees@uclan.ac.uk

The closing date for applications to the Graduate Research Office:
Friday 13 May 2011 5pm British Summer Time

Proposed Interview Date: 1st June 2011
