Congratulations to Yusuke Kubota (PhD 2010), who has accepted a tenure-track position as an International Assistant Professor at the University of Tsukuba, one of the oldest national universities in Japan. The position is a research-oriented appointment which allows the appointee to spend the first two years at a prominent university/research institute abroad, collaborating with a distinguished researcher in the field. We are delighted that Yusuke will thus be able to extend his current research visit here in the OSU Linguistics Department for another two years, and to continue his collaboration with Bob Levine. Yusuke says, "I'm very excited about this opportunity. It allows me to be around here at OSU (always an exciting environment) for a bit longer, and to pursue  a new, longer-term career goal of facilitating international collaboration with a new home ground in Japan." Terrific news, Yusuke!
