Postdoctoral Scholar - Open Pool - Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance at Oregon
- Full-time
Department Summary
The Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact is an ambitious initiative designed to fast-track scientific discoveries into innovations that improve the quality of life for people in Oregon, the nation, and the world. The campus creates the intellectual infrastructure to establish Oregon as a center for both research and development, making Oregon a place where companies can start up and grow. The Knight Campus will reshape the higher education landscape in Oregon by training the next generations of scientists, forging tighter ties with industry and entrepreneurs, and creating new educational opportunities for graduate and undergraduate students.
The Human Performance Alliance (HPA) at Oregon synergizes regenerative medicine and rehabilitation protocols to restore function to damaged tissues. An integrated interdisciplinary approach has the potential to dramatically accelerate healing and optimize functional recovery following a range of tissue damage levels and even help prevent injuries before they happen.
HPA aims to transform human health on a global scale through the discovery and translation of the biological principles underlying athletic performance. The design team behind the Alliance is focused on accelerating high-impact advances in human performance by leveraging the rapidly advancing fields of bioengineering, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, genetics, molecular biology, imaging, and regenerative medicine.
