    POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN MUSCULOSKELETAL BIOMECHANICS

    BONE & JOINT CENTER
    HENRY FORD HOSPITAL

    Applications are invited for a post-doctoral fellowship position within the
    Bone and Joint Center Research Laboratories at Henry Ford Hospital. The
    candidate will be part of a collaborative group of investigators that
    includes CM Les, DVM, PhD, Head, Section of Anatomy, GJ Gibson, PhD, Head,
    Section of Cell Biology and DP Fyhrie, Director of Research, Bone and Joint
    Center. The research team has expertise in and facilities for biomechanics,
    computational mechanics, motion analysis, animal models, anatomy, cell
    biology, histology, biochemistry and molecular biology.

    Applicants should have a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, Bioengineering or
    a related field. Research experience in musculoskeletal biomechanics is
    desired. Developed skills in one or more areas of finite element analysis,
    computer programming and mechanical testing are desirable. Duties and
    responsibilities, under minimal supervision, will include, 1) conducting
    mechanical tests on biological tissues and troubleshooting related
    experimental problems, 2) acquiring micro-computed tomography images of
    biological samples, performing FEM analyses and developing our existing FEM
    codes for different problems, 3) assisting in preparation and analysis of
    specimens for histology and biochemistry, 4) preparing manuscripts and
    abstracts for publication, and, 5) maintaining accurate and efficient
    functioning of instrumentation used for experiments.

    The main responsibility of the successful candidate will be within the
    biomechanics section, however, he/she will be in close collaboration with
