Postdoctoral Associate with the Pediatric NeuroRecovery Center, Kentucky Spinal Cord Injury Research Center, University of Louisville, Louisville, KY
The Kentucky Spinal Cord Injury Research Center at the University of Louisville is pleased to announce a position for a highly motivated Postdoctoral Associate to join the Kosair for Kids Center for Pediatric NeuroRecovery, under the direction of Andrea Behrman, Ph.D., PT, FAPTA. The Postdoctoral Associate will be immersed in a strong community of researchers, physicians, therapists, research staff, and fellow post-docs and graduate students from basic science to the human condition for translational research (pediatrics to adults) with application to an out-patient pediatric neurorecovery program. Key aspects for growth are grant-writing, conduct of funded studies, manuscript writing, and career development and exploration. The Postdoctoral Associate will be responsible for organizing and conducting day-to-day research activities related to studies involving human pediatric spinal cord injury. The Postdoctoral Associate will play an important role in preparing grant applications to NIH and private funding agencies. The Postdoctoral Associate will engage in ongoing funded research activities examining the neural mechanisms of motor and autonomic recovery in individuals who have undergone rehabilitative neuromodulatory interventions, including activity-based locomotor training and transcutaneous spinal stimulation. Additionally, the Postdoctoral Associate may be involved in other projects examining the effects of pediatric spinal cord pathologies, including acute flaccid myelitis and cerebral palsy, on the excitability of the injured nervous system above, at, and below the injury level.
