    POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP
    MOTOR CONTROL ENGINEER/NEUROSCIENTIST
    DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY AND HUMAN MOVEMENT SCIENCES
    NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY MEDICAL SCHOOL

    Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position to study human movement
    and balance control with emphasis on the neuromechanical bases of falls in
    older adults. The postdoctoral fellow will participate in developing control
    models of postural balance, as well as innovative approaches for studying
    adaptation processes of dynamic balance recovery and maintenance. The
    laboratory participates in cooperative research with the University’s Division
    of Geriatric Medicine, the Buehler Center on Aging, the Rehabilitation
    Institute of Chicago, the Department of Bioengineering, and the Institute for
    Neuroscience.


    Applicants should have a recent Ph. D. with a background in motor control,
    computational neuroscience, engineering, or biomechanics. Experience in working
    with motion analysis, force platforms, and electromyography would be
    beneficial.

    The desired starting date for the position is in early summer, 2000 but is
    negotiable. The initial appointment will be for a minimum of twelve months and
    may be renewable.

    To apply, applicants should send a cover letter with a statement of interests,
    a curriculum vitae or resume, published papers or preprints, and the names and
