Birmingham, United Kingdom Aston University Full time

The Aston Institute for Forensic Linguistics (AIFL) was founded in 2019. It is a substantial expansion of the former Aston Centre for Forensic Linguistics, which was founded in 2008. In the autumn of 2019 we appointed a total of 15 new staff to establish the Institute. This expansion was funded via a £6M investment including a £5.4M award from Research England’s Expanding Excellence in England (E3) fund. The Institute is divided into five centres: the Centre for Forensic Text Analysis, the Centre for Language and Law, the Forensic Data Science Laboratory, the Forensic Linguistics Databank, and the centre for Spoken Interaction in Legal Contexts. The Institute combines cutting-edge research with forensic casework and consultancy, undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, and CPD courses.

We are seeking a Research Assistant to contribute to the BA/Leverhulme funded project _The Discursive Effects of a ‘Pioneering Approach’: Police Interviews with Rape Victims post-Operation Bluestone, _under the supervision of Dr Nicci MacLeod, Deputy Director of the centre for Spoken Interaction in Legal Contexts.

The project will examine the ways in which a new innovative approach to the investigation of sexual offences might play out in the interview room, drawing on a small set of genuine police interviews with rape victims. The appointee will be responsible for transcribing the interviews to the required standard for discourse/conversation analysis; scrutinizing the data through a discourse analytical lens; and helping in the dissemination of findings to police partners and academic audiences.
