Ian Stavness



Graduate Student (MSc or PhD) in Human Simulation

I am searching for an outstanding individual to pursue graduate studies in developing state-of-the-art physics-based simulations of the human body. Experience with C++, Java, or Matlab programming is important. A background in computer graphics, biomechanics, medical imaging, or controls and an interest in biology and human anatomy are also desirable.

You will join a highly dynamic, interdisciplinary team focused on revealing the inner workings of the human body through computer simulation. You will also have the opportunity to interact with collaborators on the OpenSim Project at Stanford University and the Parametric Human Project at the University of British Columbia, University of Toronto, and AutoDesk Research.

Applicants should send an email to Prof. Ian Stavness at stavness@gmail.com indicating their specific interest and experience. Please include "Grad 2013 Human Simulation" in the subject line.

Summer Research Associate - Human Simulation Software

Summer Research Associate - Sensorimotor Physiology

I am searching for a highly motivated and research-oriented biology, anatomy, or medical student to work on sensorimotor physiology research. A background in human anatomy or human motor control is required. The research project involves characterizing sensory signals for use in a computer simulation of sensorimotor integration in human posture control. This project is funded by the NIH National Center for Simulation in Rehabilitation Research at Stanford University, and includes the opportunity to interact with collaborators there.
