We are recruiting for a full-time research assistant position with the Physiology of Walking & Engineering Rehabilitation (PoWER) Laboratory at the Institute for Human Neuroscience at Boys Town National Research Hospital (humanpowerlab.org). Join a vibrant and growing group of cognitive neuroscientists in Omaha using state-of-the-art neuroimaging equipment and resources in the new 15,000+ square foot Institute for Human Neuroscience building, with ample opportunities for career growth and development. We are looking for a friendly, outgoing applicant with the ability to maintain a positive attitude under pressure. Applicants with interest and previous experience in research and/or interest in physical or occupational therapy will be given preference, but the PoWER Lab maintains a broad umbrella of existing projects and primarily seeks the best candidates to join our team. Major research-dedicated tools in the Institute include two 306-sensor Neo Magnetoencephalographic (MEG) systems, Optically Pumped Magnetometry (OPM), high-density EEG for mobile brain imaging, and a 3T Siemens Prisma magnet. The PoWER lab also has state-of-the-art equipment for the biomechanical analysis of human movement, and several upper and lower extremity robotic devices that are used during therapy and motor learning/control experiments.
Successful applicants will have extensive opportunities to learn the latest neuroscience/biomechanical methods, conduct hands-on research with human participants, receive daily clinical experience, as well as one on one patient interactions, and co-author manuscripts.
