<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"></span>We are excited to welcome applications for prospective PhD students to work in the labs of <a href="http://mindbraincomputationlab.com/" title="http://mindbraincomputationlab.com/">Steven
Frankland</a> and <a href="http://phillab.host.dartmouth.edu/" title="http://phillab.host.dartmouth.edu/">Jonathan Phillips,</a> housed in the Cognitive Science Program at Dartmouth College. Students will earn their Ph.D. in the <a href="https://pbs.dartmouth.edu/" title="https://pbs.dartmouth.edu/">Department
of Psychological and Brain Sciences</a>.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our labs are interested in understanding the normative principles and mechanistic underpinnings of high-level human cognition. Some topics of particular interest are: how we quickly assemble new thoughts, how we think about alternative
possibilities, and how/why processing capacity is often so limited. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We encourage students interested in pursuing computational, behavioral, and neuroscientific work on these and related questions to apply to Dartmouth’s <a href="https://pbs.dartmouth.edu/graduate-program-psychological-and-brain-sciences" title="https://pbs.dartmouth.edu/graduate-program-psychological-and-brain-sciences">Psychological
and Brain Sciences PhD program</a> to begin Fall 2025. The application deadline is December 1, 2024.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In addition to psychology and neuroscience, our labs draw broadly on work in computer science, philosophy, and linguistics. The Cognitive Science Program at Dartmouth maintains close ties to these departments, which provide a breadth of
resources for Ph.D. candidates affiliated with the Program in Cognitive Science.</p>
