    Graduate Research Assistantship

    Neural Control Laboratory
    (http://www.uky.edu/RGS/CBME/neurctrl.html)
    Center for Biomedical Engineering
    University of Kentucky

    Keywords:
    Rehabilitation Engineering
    Functional Neuromuscular Stimulation
    Adaptive Neural Network Control Systems

    This position is part of an NIH-funded project directed at the
    development and evaluation of adaptive neural network controllers for
    use in Functional Neuromuscular Stimulation systems. The project
    includes: 1) the design of adaptive feedforward control systems using
    neural network techniques, 2) the evaluation and iterative development
    of the control system using computer simulated musculo-skeletal models,
    and 3) the experimental evaluation of the control system in experiments
    on human subjects. The work on the project will be performed at the
    Neural Control Lab, which is equipped for both the experimental and
    computational aspects of this project, and will include collaboration
    with researchers from the Department of Physical Medicine &
    Rehabilitation at the University of Kentucky and with researchers from
    Case Western Reserve University. The position is available for graduate
    work at the M.S. or Ph.D. level at the Center for Biomedical
    Engineering.
