Dear colleagues,
at the St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences (in Austria) a post-doctoral position is available in our young research group # Motor Rehabilitation. Our research group focuses on innovative approaches using methods from the fields of applied biomechanics, machine learning and virtual reality to assist in therapy and diagnosis after diseases or injuries of the musculoskeletal system. We are looking for a highly motivated post-doc to join our small team. Details can be found here: https://www.fhstp.ac.at/de/offene-st...-doc-en-304872
What you will be working on
I would appreciate if you could forward this information to potential candidates.
