Germany, the UK, ect?
I am looking for a smart PhD student to work with me in the project 
“Apps for learning. A software study analysis of mobile applications for 
language development in children”, to start in June 2020 (you can be in

other 13 PhD students in fields as diverse as psychology, robotics, 
engineering, linguistics. You will receive training in the partner 
universities. You will work with companies (Sponge UK, etc)and social
