Virtual Reality Rehabilitation of Arm and Hand Function After Stroke

Two exceptional PhD students/research engineers are needed for this exceptional project in collaboration with UBC. Haptic interfaces can deliver forces fast and smoothly enough to influence and study the neuromuscular response, and can also be used to perform rehabilitation after stroke and assess recovery. This project will develop robotic assisted rehabilitation of critical tasks involving arm and hand movements in collaboration with top research labs in Vancouver. The two people involved in this project will spend half of their project in Canada. They will receive excellent education in bioengineering and neuroengineering and become able to work across the Pacific
