Post-Doctoral Position: Neural Control of Walking
A post-doctoral position is available in the Locomotor Neuroscience Lab, directed by Dr. David J. Clark at the University of Florida (College of Medicine) and Malcom Randall Veterans Affairs Medical Center (Brain Rehabilitation Research Center). This multi-year position is supported by an NIH-funded research grant that seeks to understand brain control of walking in older adults. This position is highly collaborative and will involve extensive interaction with human research participants and with multi-disciplinary faculty, post-docs, and students in the areas of neuroscience, engineering, rehabilitation, geriatrics, biomechanics, and more.
The University of Florida and Malcom Randall Veterans Affairs Medical Center are closely affiliated, and located just across the street from each other in Gainesville, Florida.
