The second European conference on evidence based aquatic therapy “Aqua-Leuven 2015” will be held from April 15 – 18, 2015 at the KU Leuven, Faculty of Kinesiology and Rehabilitation Sciences, in Belgium. The theme of the meeting will be “the added value of water”.

Dear colleagues,

I hope you are very well. An exciting job opportunity has arisen at the University of Edinburgh. We recently secured external funding for a 2-year project and we are looking to employ a full-time researcher for the duration of the project. The area is clinical/health biomechanics, and the project will combine EMG and video analysis to study a range of exercises used for rehabilitation in the water and on land.

I am summarising some of the main aspects of the post and the project at the end of this e-mail. If you know of any appropriate candidates please feel free to forward this e-mail and, needless to say, do not hesitate to get in touch with me should you require further information.

We'll particularly welcome applications from candidates who have completed (or are about to complete) a PhD in biomechanics and have experience in electromyography and video analysis. A clinical or health-related background and previous work with clinical populations (such as low back pain patients) would also be advantageous.

Many thanks in advance and best regards from Edinburgh,

Stelios Psycharakis
