The new National Center for Simulation in Rehabilitation Research
(NCSRR) is now accepting applications for its Visiting Scholars Program.
NCSRR seeks to bring the power of engineering simulation to
rehabilitation research. The Center supports OpenSim (http://simtk.org/home/opensim
), biomechanical simulation software used by hundreds of research
teams around the world. In addition, it provides training
opportunities, seed grants, and a network of biomechanical and
clinical experts to accelerate the integration of simulations into
critical areas of rehabilitation.
Our Visiting Scholars Program is a unique experience that fosters
expertise and collaborations in biomechanical simulations for
rehabilitation research. Each year up to four individuals will be
chosen to visit NCSRR at Stanford University for a 10-week period from
mid-June to late-August. Each visiting scholar will receive a $12,000
stipend, plus up to $3000 for travel expenses. During their visits,
awardees will receive training and mentoring to help them reach their
research goals. They will have the opportunity to participate in
formal meetings, discussions with OpenSim experts, and brainstorming
sessions with their fellow visiting scholars to advance their research
and the OpenSim project. The Visiting Scholars Program is intended
for faculty members and postdoctoral fellows with advanced skills in
computer science, simulation, and biomechanics who will advance the
field of movement science through the the development of new software,
biomechanical models, and outstanding research.
Applications are due on January 17, 2011 . For more information and
applications, visit our website: http://opensim.stanford.edu
Best wishes - Scott
