  • Postdoc Research Fellow: Measuring Skeletal Muscle Adaptation to Exercise with Implications for Rehab. Robotics; University of Twente

    The Neuro-Mechanical Modeling and Engineering Lab (Department of Biomechanical Engineering, University of Twente) is seeking for one outstanding postdoctoral fellow to work as part of the INTERACT Project, funded by the European Research Council: https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/803035

    This post-doc opening focuses on the experimental study of skeletal muscle adaptation and remodeling in response to load and strain across large time scales, e.g., multiple weeks. The successful candidate will employ multi-scale measuring techniques to investigate changes in muscle activation, fascicle length, pennation angle, volume, and force-generating capacity (e.g., torque and stiffness). This will involve the combined use of imaging (i.e., ultrasound, MRI), dynamometry and electromyography techniques.

    In you're interested and passionate about investigating how human skeletal muscles change their biological structure in response to injury and robotic training, then please read more about the opening from the link below and apply by November 8th, 2021:We offer high-reaching positions with a generous allowance as well as extraordinary research facilities and working environment. Your work will be facilitated by in-house expertise and mentorship. You will collaborate with top-scientists on aspects including motor unit electrophysiology, muscle modelling and wearable robotics, giving large opportunities for growth and to perform impactful research!

    The project and the opening have large potential to make high scientific and industrial impact. Please, contact me if you have any questions.

    Regards,
