PhD Position Muscle mechanics - Oslo

The Department of Physical Performance at NIH offers a three-year PhD fellowship from September 2025.The fellowship is offered in Muscle Mechanics in a specific project with the title:Influence of mechanical constraints on muscle mechanicsThe Department of Physical performance at NIH hosts several projects focused on the properties, functions, and adaptations of muscle-tendon units under various conditions. The aim of this research is to improve our understanding of muscle-tendon interactions, adaptations, and the mechanisms behind non-traumatic injuries.The present PhD project will be conducted at NIH, in partnership with Nantes Université (France). The aim of the project will be to investigate the influence of pressure on muscle contractile dynamics and force production.The PhD candidate will play a significant role in all aspects of the project and will be involved in planning the project, recruiting participants, collecting data (using e.g., ultrasonography, dynamometry, EMG), analyzing and disseminating results in close collaboration with researchers at NIH and Nantes Université in France.The predefined project will be under the supervision of Professor Olivier Seynnes.The successful candidate will be requested to formally apply for enrolment as a PhD student at NIH. Employment as a PhD fellowship will be conditional on successful enrolment in the PhD program.
