Job Opportunities

The Sensorimotor Learning Lab at Jefferson Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute (JMRRI) located in Elkins Park, PA, has an opening for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow beginning in Fall 2025. Under the direction of Amanda Therrien, PhD, the postdoctoral fellow will investigate the mechanisms of sensory plasticity that accompany adaptive motor learning. The research will involve behavioral assessment using robotic and optical motion tracking and computational modeling approaches. More broadly, this work seeks to understand how the interaction between the sensory and motor systems contributes to the learning and control of movement. The postdoctoral fellow will be encouraged to explore these larger themes in establishing an independent line of work. JMRRI is internationally known for its research in neuroscience and neurorehabilitation and maintains a strong postdoctoral training program. This is an approximately 3-year position and offers a competitive salary and benefits.

On occasion, one or more of the Labs at the Jefferson Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute accepts graduate or undergraduate students to assist with Lab activities for a limited period of time, typically during the summer. These are unpaid positions and may be full- or part-time. Send an email to the Director of the Lab(s) that interest you to inquire about availability of volunteer positions.
