    Postdoctoral Fellowships

    NIH training grant: "Pathophysiology and Rehabilitation of Neurologic
    Disorders"


    We will have one (or potentially two) openings on an NIH training
    grant, funded by the National Center for Medical Rehabilitation
    Research (NCMRR) for a postdoctoral fellow, to work in the Sensorimotor
    Performance program (SMPP) at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago,
    or in an affiliated laboratory at Northwestern University.


    The RIC is an academic rehabilitation hospital, affiliated with
    Northwestern University Medical School. The SMPP is a motor control and
    biomechanics laboratory, devoted to the study of human movement and its
    disturbances in neurologic and musculoskeletal disorders. Faculty hold
    appointments in several medical school and engineering departments.



    Applicants must be US nationals or permanent residents, and should have
    completed all the requirements for the doctorate. Applicants in
    engineering sciences (BME, EE, ME), neuroscience, kinesiology, or
    clinical disciplines are invited to apply. Women, minorities, and
    disabled candidates are especially welcome.



    Faculty of theTraining Program include: W. Zev Rymer (Director - motor
    control), Dudley Childress (Rehabilitation Engineering), Scott Delp
    (computer simulation of musculoskeletal systems), Sandro Mussa-Ivaldi
    (robotics in motor control and rehabilitation), Barry Peterson and
    Emily Keshner (balance and posture), Jules Dewald (Pathophysiology of
    stroke), Mark Rogers (Balance and falls) and LiQun Zhang (Systems
    identification of neural control mechanisms).



    Although fellows may work with any of the above faculty, work should be
    related to the broad mission of the training grant. Position available
    beginning July 1, for 2 year minimum. Stipends are based on NIH
    recommendations, but are usually supplemented from private funds.
