[opensim-announcement at simtk.org]

*Apply for the NCSRR/OpenSim Visiting Scholars Program**Summer 2015 at
Stanford University*
The National Center for Simulation in Rehabilitation Research (NCSRR) is
now accepting applications for the 2015 Visiting Scholars Program. The
program is a unique experience that fosters expertise and collaborations in
biomechanical simulations for rehabilitation research.

Up to four individuals will be chosen to visit the NCSRR at Stanford
University for a 5-week period during the summer of 2015. Each visiting
scholar will receive an $8,000 stipend. During their visits, awardees will
receive training and mentoring to help them reach their research goals.
They will have the opportunity to participate in formal meetings,
discussions with OpenSim experts, and brainstorming sessions with their
fellow visiting scholars to advance their research and the OpenSim project.

The Visiting Scholars Program is intended for faculty members and
postdoctoral fellows with exceptional skills in biomechanics, simulation,
and computer science, who will advance the field of movement science
through the development of new software, biomechanical models, and
outstanding research.

Applications are due on February 6, 2015. Read more and learn how to apply.
