    Full time faculty position in Mechanobiology and Tissue Engineering
    Reference code: 24/2016

    Beginning from the academic year 2005-2006 there is a vacancy for a full
    time faculty position at K.U.Leuven in the Department of Mechanical
    Engineering, Division of Biomechanics and Engineering Design, with the
    following profile.

    The area of scientific research will be Mechanobiology and its
    applications in Tissue Engineering, and the research will be done in
    intensive collaboration with teams of the Faculty of Medicine
    (Rheumatology, Dentistry, Endocrinology, Orthopaedics) The study will
    focus on the impact of mechanical factors (strains and stresses, fluid
    flow, vibrations and waves) upon the differentiation of cells and the
    growth of bone and cartilage tissue, and will be made by experimental
    research in vitro and on animal models as well as by numerical modelling
    and simulation. Clinical applications are situated in tissue regeneration
    (e.g. development of CAD-methods for supporting scaffolds) as well as in
    tissue healing and amelioration: treatment and prevention of osteoporosis,
    stimulation of fracture healing. The candidate will act as a promoter or
    co promoter of ongoing and new projects in collaboration with the
    abovementioned teams.
    The teaching assignment includes courses in Biomechanics (postgraduate and
    graduate program), "Mechanobiology and tissue engineering" (graduate
    program) and "Engineering Mechanics 2" (second year undergraduate program,
    in Dutch)

    Those wishing to present themselves as candidates should use the form A3
    (with the questionnaire). The form can be downloaded from
    http://www.kuleuven.ac.be/admin/rd/niv3p/ad-f02-j1.htm

    The application file (Application form + file based on the questionnaire)
    should be handed over or sent by registered mail, in two copies per code
    to: Human resources department, Parijsstraat 72b, 3000 Leuven, tel + 32 16
