Two PhD Fellowships are available in the RoBioSS- Robotics Biomechanics Sport and Health - team of the PPRIME Institute (UPR CNRS 3346), Poitiers (FRANCE).
The RoBioSS Team is composed of 14 Professors/Researchers, 4 engineers, 12 post-docs/PhD candidates and benefits of two*10 cameras optoelectronic systems, 1 wireless EMG system, 15 force-plates, and develops specific sport ergometers including a fully instrumented ergocycle.
__Description of the first project:__
Within the RoBioSS team, the PhD candidate will focus on the energetics of human locomotion. To this purpose he/she will develop new musculoskeletal modeling and experimental methods to investigate the work transfer between body segments. The analysis of cycling will serve as a paradigm for human locomotion.
More information on the project is available on the doctoral school website:
The ideal candidate would hold a Master degree in Biomechanics, Kinesiology, Biomedical engineering or a related field and demonstrate previous research experience in musculoskeletal modeling, and/or emg processing. Proficiency in French and/or English is expected.
__Description of the second project:__
Within the RoBioSS team, the PhD candidate will focus on movement analysis by inertial sensors. The candidate will in particular develop and implement the methodologies (filters, kinematic model, calibration) related to the use of inertial sensors for human movement analysis in ecological conditions.
More information on the project is available on the doctoral school website:
The ideal candidate would hold a Master degree in Biomechanics, Kinesiology, Biomedical engineering or a related field and demonstrate previous research experience in signal processing, and/or biomechanics. Proficiency in French and/or English is expected.
The selected candidates are expected to conduct research, write scientific articles, and deliver a PhD thesis within the 3 year funding period.
Expected starting date: September 1st, 2013.
Applications should be addressed to Dr. Mathieu Domalain and sent via email (mathieu.domalain@univ-poitiers.fr) in one single PDF including:
- a cover letter highlighting their interest in the position
- a curriculum vitae
- a short (.5 - 1 page) description of previous research
- a short (.5 - 1 page) PhD proposal within the area of research presented here is welcome though not mandatory
Application deadline: April 30th.
