    We seek a postdoctoral research associate to work on studies addressing
    movement dynamics and control in normal and hemiparetic stroke
    subjects.


    These studies will be performed in the Sensory Motor Performance
    Program (SMPP), a multidisciplinary research laboratory located in the
    Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago. Members of the SMPP do basic

    which may affect human movement control.


    Applicants should have a doctoral degree in mechanical, biomedical or
    related engineering discipline, and a strong background in biomechanics
    and system identification techniques. The planned research involves
    the static and dynamic analysis and modeling of multijoint limb
    movements following hemiparetic stroke. The applicant also has the
    possibility to get involved in ongoing projects in functional brain
    imaging. Finally, the applicant will be able to benefit from mentorship
    of Dr. Julius Dewald, a Neuroscientist and Clinician and Dr. Sandro
    Mussa-Ivaldi, a Biomedical Engineer.
