The following professional and personal qualifications are required:
• PhD degree or equivalent qualifications
• Strong publication record in biomechanics, molecular biology, neuroscience, or a related field
• Excellent track record in obtaining external funding
• Experience in under- and postgraduate teaching and supervision
