The ambition of this fundamental research proposal is to investigate the underlying neural processes of mental practice, suggesting adaptive models of motor imagery, by means of complementary techniques. The findings from this project will open new perspectives in optimizing the benefits of mental practice during motor learning and motor recovery.
Preference will be given to candidates with strong quantitative background with experience in the analysis of neurophysiological markers using techniques such as electromyography, transcranial magnetic stimulation and peripheral nerve stimulation. Proficient knowledge of the English and/or French language is required and experience with matlab programming and kinematic analysis is favorable.
The contract duration is 2 years (1 year + 1 year renewable).
