The Biomechanics Research Building at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (https://www.unomaha.edu/college-of-e...bout/index.php ) research associate position available. The MOVCENTR fosters productive research within our thematic scientific focus by producing highly promising young faculty striving for independent research. Each research project is supported by the Center to achieve this mission. The motor related disorders encompassed by these projects illustrate our overall vision for a research center striving to generate high impact, high-quality research in human movement variability and emphasizes the clinical translational nature of our mentoring approach. This Center is located at the Biomechanics Research Building at the University of Nebraska Omaha (UNO).

POSITIONS OFFERED: The interested individuals can receive the post-doctoral research training for at least 1 year with possible renewals based on funding and performance.
RESPONSIBILITIES: These include: conducting research related to projects within the building focusing on human movement variability. This person will be responsible for working directly with the medical doctors and project directors to ensure the projects progress. In addition, assisting in writing grants and research papers; working with clinical collaborators in data collection and testing; and participating in tasks as assigned by the COBRE PI, Dr. Nick Stergiou.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS: Ph.D. in Motor Control and Development, Kinesiology, Biomechanics, Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, or related field. Experiences with computer programming (i.e., MatLab), biomechanics data collection (motion analysis, EMG, etc.) and strong oral communication and professional writing skills are preferred.
SETTING: The UNO’s Biomechanics Research Building (BRB), is a three-story research building that boasts 53,000 square feet of laboratory, office, and excellent collaboration space. The BRB is also located within a two-mile radius from the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) and the Western Iowa-Nebraska Veterans’ Affairs Medical Center (VAMC). The proximity to these two major Centers provides exceptional access to the populations under investigation in the research projects proposed within our Center.
