POST-DOC IN PERCEPTION & ACTION
BROWN UNIVERSITY
A post-doctoral Research Associate position in Perception and Action is
available in the Dept. of Cognitive and Linguistic Sciences beginning
July 1, 2004. The NIH-funded project investigates the visual control
of human locomotor behavior in dynamic environments, including steering,
obstacle avoidance, interception, escape, interactions with other
agents, and their integration, using a state-of-the-art ambulatory
virtual reality laboratory (the VENLab). Control strategies are modeled
using a dynamical systems approach, with potential applications to
robotics.
Candidates should have a background in human perceptual and/or motor
research and expertise in some combination of computer graphics
programming, kinematic analysis and signal processing, and/or dynamical
systems modeling. Ph.D. must be completed before starting, and the
position is renewable for up to 4 years.
Send vita, brief statement of research interests, and 3 letters of
reference to Dr. William H. Warren, Perception-Action Search, Dept. of
