with eye tracking, electrophysiology analysis, and motion analysis. The Kessler Foundation has research-dedicated 3 Tesla MRI scanner, state-of-the-art mobile imaging equipment (EEG, fNIRS), instrumented treadmill with virtual reality (C-Mill), Neurocom Balance
Platform, biodex, and is a leader in powered exoskeleton assisted rehabilitation therapy. The successful applicant will also be expected to develop his/her own mentored research project. He/she will work on various aspects of research projects from inception
(e.g., study formulation, grant-writing, etc.), through dissemination (conference presentation and manuscript publication).
