A three year PhD stipend ($18,009 p.a. tax
free) is available for a suitable student to examine the effects of limb
dynamics upon human motor learning. Applicants should possess a First
Class Honours degree or completed Masters degree (with thesis) in
the area of motor control, neuroscience, biomechanics, biomedical
engineering or a related field.
The primary focus of the research will be to understand the interactions
between novel limb dynamics and the neural processes of motor learning.
Experience in biomechanical (kinematic, kinetic, servo-control) and
neurophysiological (e.g. EMG, Transcranial magnetic stimulation)
techniques would be an asset.
The work will take place in the Perception and Motor Systems Laboratory
in the School of Human Movement Studies at the University of Queensland,
Brisbane, Australia. Information about the school can be found at
http://www.hms.uq.edu.au.
Information about the University School of Graduate Studies including
scholarships and fees can be found at

To apply, please forward your application (including CV, academic record,
contact details of 3 referees and a statement on research interests),
preferably by email to: sriek@...
