PhD position at LIRMM, Université Montpellier, France

PhD position available at LIRMM, Université Montpellier, France
Title : Prolonged Functional Balanced Standing in paraplegic patient

The standing posture in paraplegic patient can be obtained by knee joint locking. Different approaches are possible: verticalizing wheelchairs, orthosis, Vanini boots, functional electrical stimulation (FES).

Orthoses and Vanini boots allow to lock the knee and the ankles and in some cases to free one or two hand. A visual feedback is necessary for the patient to ensure his vertical alignment.

Electrical stimulation is interesting as it would allow to have in a longer term a completely implanted version of the system and therefore largely more acceptable by the patient. The electrical stimulation of biceps femori allows to lock knee joint but involves high current intensity levels which fatigue quickly the muscles and lead to early joint unlocking. conduisent trop rapidement à un déverrouillage de l’articulation. We propose here to explore orthoses, Vanini boots and FES solutions and combine them if necessary to achieve long term functional balanced standing (allowing to free one hand to grasp an object).

More precisely, we will study :

1) Knee locking under surface FES
Several strategies will be considered : 1) moving from continuous stimulation to intermittent one , 2) alterning stimulation on the two sides, 3) optimizing stimulation patterns (frequency, amplitude, …), 4) involving frontal plane movements (lateral oscillations) and stimulating other muscles. (lateral oscillations controlled by verticality of the trunk), 5) bifocal stimulation of thigh muscles, 6) matrix stimulation to modify the localization of stimulation point.

2) Balance control
We will propose strategies to ensure balance by combining different solutions (orthoses, Vanini boots, FES)
Keywords:
- musculo-skeletal modelling
- involvement in clinical experiments
- analysis of experimental data

This PhD thesis will be co-supervised by PhD Christine AZEVEDO, PhD David GUIRAUD, MD PhD Charles Fattal (PROPARA) and Pr. P. Fraisse.

PhD position in FOod Science

Applications are invited for a PhD position at the University of Aarhus, Faculty of Agricultural Sciences (DJF), Department of Food Science. The position is available for three years beginning as soon as possible.

Research area and project description
The current knowledge of how dynamic processes during manufacturing affect crystallisation is limited especially when the milk fat is present in both a continuous phase and as milk fat globules, like in butter. An improved knowledge will help solve certain problems about instability of milk fat-based products. Furthermore, it is desirable to add vegetable lipids to milk fat which renders a softer and "healthier" spread product. Again, knowledge is lacking of how this will affect polymorphic transition of the lipids, and how the processes will affect this.

We are looking for a skilled PhD-candidate to study how heating, cooling and shearing of cream, butter and anhydrous milk fat affect the transition of polymorphic crystal forms and the final solid fat content of the products. In addition, the effects of mixing vegetable oils into milk fat on the polymorphic transitions will be studied.

The PhD candidate for this project must have a general background in food science, physical chemistry or biotechnology. A study visit abroad is anticipated during the PhD.

Qualifications
Applicants to the PhD position must have a relevant Master´s degree (or graduate in the very near future - documentation for final thesis and date of examination must be enclosed in the application) or equivalent.

Place of Employment and Place of Work
The place of employment is the University of Aarhus, and the place of work is the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, Blichers Allé 20, DK-8830 Tjele.

The PhD-student will be enrolled in the faculty´s Graduate School of Agriculture, Food and Environment (SAFE) and associated with the Danish Food Research School (FOOD Denmark).

FOOD Denmark is a Danish research school with more than 140 PhD students affiliated from the University of Copenhagen - Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Aarhus, University of Southern Denmark and the Technical University of Denmark. FOOD Denmark has close collaboration with some of the most advanced Danish producers of food or food ingredients. The present scholarship is co-financed by Arla Foods, Food Denmark and the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences.

The stipend is affiliated with the research project AnyBody Inside, co-financed between the Danish National Advanced Technology Foundation, AnyBody Technology A/S and Aalborg University. The purpose of the project is to investigate and develop reliable methods for prediction of natural postures and movements by means of musculoskeletal models of the human body. The project is therefore inter-disciplinary in nature comprising elements from mechanics, numerical mathematics, software development and physiology.

The hypothesis of the project is the idea that voluntary postures and movement strategies in humans are guided by a desire to optimize performance according to some criteria. It is the purpose of the project to identify these criteria, cast them into a mathematical form and implement them in musculoskeletal models using the AnyBody Modeling System.

The study programme will likely contain the following items:

    * Literature review of state-of-the- art in the field.
    * Biomechanical analysis of the problem resulting in candidate criterion functions and constraints.
    * Innovation of models and examples suitable to investigate different formulations of the optimization problem.
    * Experiments and simulation.
    * Conclusions and final implementation of the methods.

Key topics: Musculoskeletal simulation, posture and movement prediction, optimization.

PhD Oposition in Planning and Development

The PhD stipend is available within the general study programme “Planning and Development”.

The PhD project is a part of a larger research project entitled “Uncertainties in Transport Project Evaluation” carried out by Aalborg University and Denmark’s Technical University in cooperation with few universities and research institutes in other countries. The political goals within the transport sector often conflict with the general trend development, e.g. the increasing transport demand and volumes that lead to increasing congestion and CO2 emissions. The users’ responses to policy initiatives and the derived impacts can be difficult to forecast due to complex causal relationships. Traffic forecast models and socio-economic cost-benefit analyses have been increasingly applied as tools for decision support, and they are often used to justify new transport infrastructure projects.

However, experience from a number of large-scale investment projects has shown that the traffic forecasts on which decisions to implement the projects were based, have often been insufficient and sometimes misleading.

The purpose of the PhD project is to investigate why traffic forecasts are wrong, and how they can become significantly more accurate. To understand this, forecasted versus actual traffic are studied: How do traffic volumes after project opening compare to the forecasts? Is there any systematic pattern in deviations between forecasted and actual traffic volumes? How is this explained? What are the consequences? The aim is to show whether decisions to build are well-informed or not. Therefore the forecasts available to decision makers at the time of making the decision to build are compared to actual outturn traffic.

Organizational affiliation:
The PhD fellow position is organizationally anchored in the Department of Development and Planning, Aalborg University, where some teaching will occur and the research project to which the PhD stipend is connected will be carried out. The PhD fellow will be a member of the Research Group for Urban Planning and Mobility Studies.

Qualification requirements:
PhD stipends are allocated to individuals who hold a Masters degree. PhD stipends are normally for a period of 3 years. It is a prerequisite for allocation of the stipend that the candidate will be enrolled as a PhD student at the Doctoral School of the Faculties of Engineering, Science and Medicine, in accordance with the regulations of Ministerial Order No. 18 of January 14, 2008 on the PhD Programme at the Universities.

Fellowships in Development Economics University of Warsaw, Poland

Fellowships in Development Economics

University of Warsaw, Faculty of Economics (Poland)

Master of Arts in Development Economics (MADE) at Warsaw University, Faculty of Economics is a two year programme of 800 hours of teaching offering a high quality degree in development economics.

What is it?

MADE is a full time two-year graduate programme, offering 800 hours of high quality courses. Its aim is to provide necessary foundations in economics and policy design to future development specialists and advisors in international and governmental development agencies as well as non-governmental organisations. MADE is supported by United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Poland, and meets educational standards of teaching development economics at European and American universities. Our international economics and development programmes attract students from a diverse range of backgrounds and countries (including many of the African states, South-East Asia and Latin America).

Why do we do it?The demand for experts in the field of development will be growing in the coming years, as the understanding of the important role of institutions dealing with international development organisations is growing in both aid receiving and aid providing countries. Highly qualified professional staff is needed everywhere where aid strategies are being developed, where reforms in market organisation and social policies are implemented, while within the local authorities there is growing recognition of the role external advisors can play in these processes.

Who do we do it for? Graduates of the MADE acquire a thorough knowledge in the field of economics and development policies and hands-on experience with various analytical tools for project analysis in the field of infrastructure development, education, healthcare and social policy. Graduates learn how to make individual decisions and solve problems associated with identification of development goals and their management, as well as assessment, by using quantitative and qualitative analysis. These skills are essential while working for both international institutions (United Nations and its agendas, World Bank, OECD, European Commission etc.), as well as public administration and research centres in particular countries. MADE also constitutes a very good starting point for Ph.D. studies.

What does quality mean to us? We are more than committed to high quality teaching, creating conditions for a stimulating and international environment. Professors teaching in MADE come from widely recognised universities and research institutes throughout Europe. They all have diverse background and outstanding record of publications in the field. And they really are available! Every student has access to growing on-line resources of the programme as well as receives personalised teaching materials. We also organise international research seminars and meetings with successful economists and development experts. Students are invited to participate in research projects as well as supported in developing their own. We also provide a space for scientific publication and creative discussions.

Admissions Candidates are selected on the principle of academic excellence as shown by their transcripts of records. Recruitment Committee carefully reviews all applications assuring individual attention.

Prospective students are requested to submit complete applications till May 31st.

An application file consists of an application form (to be downloaded from the website), official transcript of records, two letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose detailing research interests, professional goals, and reasons for applying to the program as well as a certified copy of the degree (which can be delivered later). If any of the above listed documents will be made available to you after the application deadline, contact us for specific instructions. MADE is designed for students, who majored in economics, mathematics, business, or social sciences and want to make Development Economics their main fields of study. Candidates should hold an undergraduate degree (Bachelor or equivalent degree).

All information is available http://www.developm ent.wne.uw. edu.pl.For further information, please contact MADE Team at e-mail:development@ wne.uw.edu. pl

Information package may be downloaded from http://www.developm ent.wne.uw. edu.pl/uploads/ Main/flyer. pdf.

Application has to be received by 31. May 2009.
