The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Wisconsin–Madison seeks to fill a tenure-track position at either assistant, associate or full professor with research focusing on sensing and assistance agents to promote independence and healthy aging. The population distribution of the United States and much of the world is growing older, and with longer life comes the challenge of maintaining health, independence, and a high quality of life over an extended period of time, termed the health span. While many aspects of decline and disability may be preventable, not all are. These remaining needs may be assuaged by new technologies to support awareness, decision making, home safety, health monitoring, physical function, and community participation. This position is part of the RISE-THRIVE initiative.

Technological advances in sensing, perception, and assistive technology along with a better understanding of the biomechanics of the aging human may contribute
