UW CREATE + I-LABS Postdoctoral Fellows
We’re excited to announce openings for two postdoctoral fellows to work with our multidisciplinary teams at the UW Center for Research and Education on Accessible Technology and Experiences (CREATE) and Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences (I-LABS).
Powered mobility - such as powered wheelchairs and ride-on cars - are essential, empowering mobility aids for many children with disabilities. The postdoctoral fellows will work closely with a team of psychologists, neuroscientists, rehabilitation professionals, and engineers from CREATE and I-LABS to improve evidence for and access to mobility technology for children ages 1-3 years. This research will advance our foundational science to understand how early motor experience and mobility impact development, cognition, and communication.
We are looking for candidates who have a passion for multidisciplinary research. You will be working closely with children with disabilities and their families, psychologists, rehabilitation professionals, and other scientists throughout the research project. This research is led by Dr. Heather Feldner from the UW’s Department of Rehabilitation Medicine and Disability Studies Program, Dr. Kat Steele from the UW’s Department of Mechanical Engineering, and Dr. Patricia Kuhl and Dr. Andrew Meltzoff from I-LABS.
