In the context of the project ChaSpeePro run in collaboration with the University of Geneva, the Hopitaux Universitaires de Genève and the Idiap Institute, the Laboratoire de Phonétique et Phonologie* (LPP ? CNRS/Sorbonne Nouvelle) in Paris is offering:

-       a 3-year (+1) doctoral position starting from December 2021 (https://bit.ly/2XeQNf4)

-       a post-doctoral position for 2-years with a possible extension of 2 more years. Ideally the position would start from December 2021, but later starting date might be considered (https://bit.ly/2VFQWr5).

The general goal of the project is to better characterize the processes linked to the encoding of invariant speech units into articulated speech, and their disorders (in dysarthria and apraxia of speech). This project follows the MoSpeeDi project described here: https://www.unige.ch/fapse/mospeedi/.

Within the scope of this project, articulatory and acoustic data will be collected at the LPP to investigate questions related to:

1. The temporal organization and coordination of speech units at different levels (e.g., gesture, syllable, word, phrases)
2. Stability and flexibility of the speech production system (e.g., speaker-specific strategies and adaptation to different speech task demands)
3. Articulatory vs. acoustic manifestations of spatio-temporal reductions in speech

Within this Swiss-French collaborative project, the candidates will join the team under the supervision of Cécile Fougeron and in close collaboration with Anne Hermes and Leonardo Lancia.

The Laboratoire de Phonétique et Phonologie (CNRS/Sorbonne Nouvelle, https://lpp.in2p3.fr/) is a research and teaching unit in experimental phonetics and phonology. It is located in the 5th arrondissement in Paris. The lab offers a diverse and fair working environment in a small and dynamic lab.
