Maryland-College Park (www.sph.umd.edu/KNES/) invites applications for a
9-month tenure-track position in Exercise Neuroscience at the level of
assistant/associate professor beginning as early as August 2011. The
successful candidate is expected to conduct research within the broad
area of brain function as related to physical activity. Collaborative
opportunities within the department, school and campus including a
campus-wide neuroscience program, and nearby institutions including NIH
are outstanding.
Laboratory facilities available in the department support human and
animal exercise testing and interventions, EEG, motion analysis,
robotics, genomics, virtual reality, and cell/molecular research.
The campus offers whole-head MEG imaging in addition to the
Maryland Neuroimaging Center, opening Summer 2011, housing a Siemens 3T
MRI.
Qualified candidates for the position should possess a Ph.D. in
kinesiology, neuroscience, bioengineering, or a related field.
