Post-Doctoral Research Associate
UNC Applied Biomechanics Laboratory
Lampe Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
The Applied Biomechanics Laboratory (abl.bme.unc.edu) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill invites applications for a postdoctoral position to help lead a highly collaborative line of research designed to establish a paradigm shift in our biomechanical understanding and clinical management of age-related mobility impairment toward feasible and cost-effective devices to modify foot and ankle structure and function. To accomplish this, the applicant will have access to an integrative combination of experimental and computational techniques, from quantitative motion analysis and in vivo ultrasound imaging to musculoskeletal modeling and intramuscular electromyography. The position is funded for an initial period of 1 year. However, we are deeply committed to the training and professional development of our post-docs, and intend for annual renewals beyond the initial appointment.
The research line is a collaboration between UNC Chapel Hill and the University of Utah, with more details available here: https://reporter.nih.gov/search/nC8k...tails/10906236
The successful candidate will have completed their Ph.D. in an area related to the biomechanics or neuromechanics of human movement. Research experience, a history of project leadership, and strong technical skills in the neuromechanics of foot and ankle joint function, including quantitative motion analysis, ultrasound imaging and analysis, musculoskeletal modeling, and intramuscular EMG are highly desirable.
Our laboratory is uniquely positioned in the UNC/NCSU Lampe Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering (bme.unc.edu), which integrates the exceptional strengths of the UNC Chapel Hill College of Arts & Sciences and School of Medicine and the NC State University College of Engineering. Together, this facilitates meaningful and productive collaborations between scientists, engineers, and clinicians and offers tremendous opportunities for professional development. The Applied Biomechanics Laboratory offers state-of-the-art and dedicated facilities to support the applicants’ research.
To apply, please submit the following online at https://unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/304325: (1) a cover letter of interest, including qualifications for this position and a description of research accomplishments and directions for future study, and (2) a current curriculum vitae including the names of three professional references.
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis and the position will remain open until filled.
Sincerely,
Jason R. Franz, Ph.D.
