spatial orientation, effects of Parkinson's disease, vestibular disorders,
and peripheral neuropathy on control of balance and the rehabilitation of
balance disorders.
The responsibilities include:
1 Assisting the Systems Engineer with maintaining the laboratory's
mechanical and electronic devices. These include a movable hydraulic force
platform under computer control, a Motion Analysis kinematics recording
system, an EMG amplification and recording system, force transducers, rate
sensors, and accelerometers.
2. Assisting with constructing, maintaining and repairing new experimental
equipment for the study of human movement.
3. Developing, maintaining and documenting Matlab programs for the Human
Posture Laboratory, and assisting with the design and development of data
analysis programs.
4. Documenting electronic and other new equipment and maintaining software.
This exciting opportunity will allow the Bioengineer to act as the main
