Post Doc Position available at the University of Rouen (France)
Duration: 15 months beginning in September 1st, 2013
Employer: university of Rouen, Faculty of Science of the Sport, laboratory CETAPS (EA3832)
Workplace: Rouen - France
Speciality : Motor Control, Sport sciences (STAPS), Psychology
Deadline of application : 2013/06/14
Further information: RĂ©gis Thouvarecq (regis.thouvarecq@univ-rouen.fr), Ludovic Seifert (ludovic.seifert@univ-rouen.fr), secretaryship : Jenny Vu-Dinh (cetaps@univ-rouen.fr).
The recruited postdoc will work on the Demonstrator 3 of the project RISC (supported by State / Region / FEDER) that concerns " Mobility, behavioral dynamics and environment ". This demonstrator consists in showing how the not linear dynamic models allow to model the processes of emergence of the behavior at the individual and collective levels. Indeed, the sciences of complexity allow to highlight useful knowledge both in the development of tools necessary for the motor performance, and in the procedures of learning of the youngest or persons with disabilities, or for the evaluation of the physical activity.
We look for, to complete our team (10 persons), one postdoc and one engineer to contribute to the development of the Demonstrator 3 " Mobility, behavioral dynamics and environment ". The Postdoc will be capable of developing and operating experimental protocols, of treating experimental data and of participating in the writing of the reports of works (publications / reports)
The comment Postdoc will work on various current projects (with different levels of implication) and will participate in the publications according to his degree of investment. The current projects concern: (1) postural regulation and supra-postural task, (2) the dynamics of learning in motor coordination in swimming and climbing (3) Kinematics of ice skating in hockey.
The candidate will have to be holder of a PhD in Sport Sciences, or kinesiology, or psychology. In both cases, a great importance of the "sensori-motricity" in the works of Thesis and/or in the published works is essential.
Required Skills :
A minimal theoretical knowledge of the complex approaches of the sensori motricity and the tools which relate to it. More specifically, a knowledge of the postural control would be one more.
Capacities to set up experimental protocols which combine several technics of acquisition (video / force plate / accelerometers) with various public.
Skills in the field of the classic statistical treatments and the capacity to apply them to the signals (posturographique etc.). Skills in the use of the circular statistics would be one more.
Capacities in reading scientific English is imperative.
To speak French would be useful (during experimentation for example) but not totally essential
Capacity to be worked in team in a multidisciplinary project
