The Research Group in Computational Linguistics, Synalp/LORIA [1] in Nancy
(France) is looking to fill a two-year researcher position starting
as soon as possible.

The position is available in the EU funded ModelWriter project [2] and is
concerned with exploring connections between the semantic web and
natural language processing. The successful candidate will work on

generation (mapping e.g., RDF data to text). For more details, see

Prerequisite is a PhD degree or a Master in computational linguistics,
computer science, or a related field. Candidates are expected to have
some knowledge of natural language processing and solid
programming skills. Knowledge of English is mandatory and prior experience
in machine learning or in semantic web technologies is a plus. There
are no teaching obligations.

Please send applications (a single PDF file containing a motivation
letter, CV, list of publications and research statement) by email to
