Prof. Steve Collins and the Carnegie Mellon University Experimental Biomechatronics Laboratory invite applications for a position as Postdoctoral Research Associate in the topic area of exoskeleton-assisted locomotion. Our team uses versatile, tethered prosthesis and exoskeleton emulator systems to study basic aspects of human-robot interaction during locomotion, with the aim of discovering new performance-enhancing features that can be incorporated into wearable robotic devices. More information about our group and approach can be found at: biomechatronics.cit.cmu.edu
Candidates should have experience conducting human gait collections and analyzing biomechanics data. The ideal candidate would also have experience with Matlab and Simulink, familiarity with exoskeleton hardware, and a foundation in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics or Physics.
Desired starting time is in the window between September 2015 and January 2016, with a duration of one to three years.
Our laboratory is in the College of Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, currently the 4th ranked engineering graduate school in the United States. We are located in Pittsburgh PA, recently ranked the most livable city in the United States by The Economist.
If you are interested, please send an email including your CV, a short list of references, and a few representative papers to Steve Collins, stevecollins@cmu.edu
