The Department of Kinesiology (http://www.asu.edu/clas/kines/) has 18 faculty and state-of-the-art laboratories dedicated to research in Motor Control, Motor Development, Biomechanics, Exercise Physiology, Exercise Biochemistry, Neuroendocrinology and Sport Psychology. The department is currently located in two buildings. One of the buildings houses the Exercise and Sport Research Institute consisting of over 14,000 square foot dedicated to research laboratories. These areas are designed to facilitate cross- and interdisciplinary research and provide the potential for a wide range of research and instructional activities. The current student population consists of 751 undergraduate majors and 33 graduate students. The selected candidates will join a dynamic and active group of existing motor control researchers in the Department and at ASU. The motor control group in the Department of Kinesiology has an established record of productivity and federal support for its research programs. Research foci include oculomotor control and control of multi-joint movements during handwriting, drawing, reaching and grasping. A variety of experimental approaches are used ranging from intramuscular EMG to recording movement kinematics and kinetics. The motor control group also has strong links with local, national, and international motor control and neuroscience research groups. These interactions include research collaborations and NIH- and NSF-funded interdisciplinary graduate programs in motor neuroscience. The selected faculty will participate in the creation of a Motor Control Research Center strategically placed to effectively interact with the scientific and clinical community.
Arizona State University is one of the premier metropolitan public research universities in the nation. Enrolling more than 57,000 undergraduate, graduate, and professional students on four campuses in metropolitan Phoenix, ASU maintains a tradition of academic excellence in core disciplines, and has become an important global center for innovative interdisciplinary teaching and research. ASU offers outstanding resources for study and research, including libraries and museums with important collections, studios and performing arts spaces for creative endeavor, and unsurpassed state-of-the-art scientific and technological laboratories and research facilities. ASU is research-driven but focused on learning - teaching is carried out in a context that encourages the creation of new knowledge. The faculty includes recipients of prestigious academic and professional awards, including membership in the national academies and a recent Nobel Prize Laureate. ASU currently ranks sixth among public universities in its enrollment of freshmen merit scholars. The university champions diversity, and is international in scope, welcoming students from all 50 states and nations across the globe.
