    POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITION in MORPHOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF HUMAN SHAPES IN MOTION

    A postdoctoral position is available for one year starting from January 2014 to December 2014 at Grenoble, France. Candidates motivated by Human Movement Analysis who received their PhD in Neurosciences, Kinesiology, Biomechanics or Bio-engineering sciences are eligible to apply.

    o Objectives:
    - Morphometrics analysis of 3D human shapes in motion
    - Extraction of movement kinematics from conventional and volumetric 3D analysis
    - Validation of the natural motion patterns recognition from morphometry-based measures
    - 3D human motion recording and kinematics analysis based on anatomic and geometric models
    - Characterization of human motion coordination from dynamic morphometry (whole-body movement)

    o The candidate has expertise in:
    - Human motion analysis with 3D motion capture systems (Vicon or Video multiCam)
    - Kinematics and kinetics analysis with anthropometrics and biomechanical modelization
    - Electrophysiology and bio-behavioral measurement of human movement (EMG, force plate)
    - Oral and written in English

    o Salary:
    - 2 080 euros / month (net pay)

    o Project partners:
    The project is to be developed in the GIPSA-lab, LJK, and INRIA laboratories that have international recognition in human motion analysis, neurosciences, biomechanics, computer sciences, and innovative technologies. It is essential that the candidate is willing to work in a multidisciplinary research team, with real communication skills.

    o Host laboratories:
    The host laboratories are part of the CNRS, Grenoble University and INRIA Institutes, respectively located in the campus of University Joseph Fourier and in the Inovallée Area, Grenoble, France.

    Applicants should e-mail a letter of application, a curriculum vitae (including a list of publications), and two recommendation letters, to olivier.martin@ujf-grenoble.fr. The position is expected to start as soon as possible.
