The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is a federal research and
development laboratory administered by the University of California for the
Department of Energy. Recently, LLNL brought its history of excellence in
engineering development, computational modeling, and human factors research
to focus on the prevention and treatment of occupational hand injuries and
the modeling of upper extremity movement.
We are currently seeking excellent candidates for the following 3 positions.
In all positions, there will be opportunities for interaction and
collaboration with interdisciplinary scientists in the academic community and
with private industry. All appointees are expected to perform research
resulting in publications in leading journals. Candidates must have a
demonstrated ability to (1) identify complex problems and solve them in a
creative and timely manner, (2) carry out independent research and (3)
communicate clearly in both oral and written form.
For further information, candidates may contact:
Dr. S. Burastero or Raj Denhoy
