Applications are invited for a Spine Biomechanics fellowship at the
Biomechanics Research Laboratory, Department of Orthopaedics and
Rehabilitation, Yale University School of Medicine.
The successful candidate will:
- have recently completed a Masters or Ph.D. in Biomedical or Mechanical
Engineering with special interest in clinical biomechanics of the human
spine

programming and instrumentation
- have excellent interpersonal communication skills and work habits
- be self-starting, independent and motivated to learn
- have a special interest or background in experimental testing of in
vitro biomechanical models
- eagerness to pursue an exciting career path in Orthopaedic
Bioengineering research
