Immediate Post-doc Position Openings, Sept 1, 2025
The Robotics and Rehabilitation (ROAR) Lab is looking for motivated, hard-working, and curious applicants for two post-doc positions. Candidates will bring contemporary scientific approaches and be motivated to contribute intellectually in a dynamic team environment, interacting with others on a variety of projects. These projects could include, but are not limited to rehabilitation of trunk control in children with cerebral palsy using Trunk Support Trainer, Stand training of individuals with spinal cord injury, Design of novel parallel mechanisms for human functional rehabilitation.
Post-docs will be encouraged to lead independent projects resulting in high impact publications, present at conferences and prepare for long-term careers in academia or industry. If you are interested in working on exciting problems related to rehabilitation robotics, email Dr. Agrawal at [email protected] with a short description of your past research experiences and a resume/CV.

Research Projects
Perturbation Training
Balance training is aimed at reducing falls risk. Elderly subjects and patients with movement disorders exhibit a high risk for falling compared to their young and healthy peers. Our group has developed novel paradigms where we apply different types of perturbations while subjects are standing or walking on a treadmill. These paradigms have been used to characterize and augment stability in different population groups, including elderly, Parkinson's, Cerebellar ataxia, and others.
The Trunk Support Trainer (TruST) project is recruiting!
The WRAPS project is recruiting!
