Post-doctoral Research Associate
University College London -Sobell Department of Motor Neuroscience and Movement Disorders, Institute of Neurology
Applications are invited for a Research Associate in the Whole-body Sensorimotor Control laboratory, Sobell Department of Motor Neuroscience and Movement Disorders, University College London Institute of Neurology, under the supervision of Professor Brian Day. The laboratory focuses on neural processes that control human movement, walking and balance. The appointee will be responsible for undertaking a range of experimental investigations into the effects of deep-brain stimulation on whole-body motor control processes in patients with Parkinson's disease. Independent avenues of research will also be encouraged.
Applicants should have a PhD in Neuroscience, Physiology, Biomechanics, or a related discipline, and have a keen interest in the neural control of action. Experience of programming with Matlab is essential. Experience working with patients and 3-D motion analysis is advantageous.
The post is available from October 2012 and is funded by a grant from the MRC to August 2015 in the first instance.
You should apply for this post through UCL's online recruitment - www.ucl.ac.uk/hr/jobs - where you can download a job description and person specification using ref: 1268833
For further information regarding the application process please contact Samantha Robinson, Personnel Officer, Institute of Neurology, 23 Queen Square, London, WC1N 3BG (email: personnel@ion.ucl.ac.uk).
Applicants may also contact Professor Brian Day directly on brian.day@ucl.ac.uk.
