Lecturer in Allied Health Sciences , Griffith University, Australia
Adopt and develop precision medicine approaches for our internationally recognised musculoskeletal health and rehabilitation research program. We seek applicants with expertise and interest in musculoskeletal biomechanics and/or human foot health. This role provides an excellent opportunity to undertake cross-disciplinary research, from basic discovery science to product development, clinical trials and implementation. You will use established partnerships with leading rehabilitation, health and sports technology companies, providing unique opportunities to create meaningful impact for individuals and society.
The Opportunity
The School is seeking to appoint experts and disrupters to Lecturer and Senior Lecturer positions in priority areas of allied health (all disciplines), biomedical engineering, biorheology and exercise science to join our bold vision for Precision Rehabilitation and Human Performance.
Successful applicants will contribute to a paradigm shift from state-of-the-art stratified care towards ultra-personalised allied-health rehabilitation and training to improve and augment human and sports performance, irrespective of an individual’s (dis)ability, thus enabling inclusive participation in family, community, work, and sport. You will be immersed in an exceptional team science and interdisciplinary research environment underpinned by established and well-funded ties with industry and affiliated hospitals and health providers in South-East Queensland. An impact-oriented career awaits you – join us in our mission to translate basic and mechanistic research into next-generation technologies and rehabilitation products and services that enrich the lives of end users.
