    Ph.D. Studentship

    M.E. Müller Institute for Biomechanics
    University of Bern
    Bern, Switzerland

    "Improving bone / implant fixation in orthopaedic surgery"

    Applications are invited for a PhD studentship in the Basic and Clinical
    Biomechanics Group at the M.E. Müller Institute for Biomechanics,
    University of Bern. The group comprises a multi-disciplinary research
    team, focusing on orthopaedic implant evaluation, computational
    biomechanics (finite element analysis) and the development of new
    techniques for orthopaedic surgery. The successful applicant will join a
    project developing new technologies for improving the primary fixation of
    polymeric and metallic orthopaedic implants in bone.

    The position is available immediately. Candidates with an MSc or
    equivalent in Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Materials
    Science or a closely related field should apply. Experience with any of the
    following would be a distinct advantage: mechanical testing equipment and
    procedures, Labview, CAD and FEM software and polymer processing. A
    competitive stipend is offered and will be commensurate with qualifications
    and experience.

    Interested candidates should send their resumes with references and school
    transcripts to:
