    PhD and MSc positions

    Intelligent Systems for Medicine Laboratory. School of Mechanical
    Engineering. The University of Western Australia
    http://www.mech.uwa.edu.au/ISML/

    "Biomechanics for Computer-Integrated Medicine"

    Applications are invited for PhD and MSc positions in the Intelligent
    Systems for Medicine Laboratory, School of Mechanical Engineering, The
    University of Western Australia.

    The University of Western Australia is a medium-size research-intensive
    university located in Perth, on the banks of Swan River, 7 km from the
    Indian Ocean beach.

    Perth offers unparalleled living environment at reasonable costs.

    Our group comprises a multi-disciplinary research team with projects in the
    areas of numerical methods, soft tissue biomechanics, surgical simulation,
    medical robotics, medical image registration, injury biomechanics and sport
    biomechanics. For further project details please consult
    http://www.mech.uwa.edu.au/ISML/projects.htm
    or contact Prof. Karol Miller at kmiller@mech.uwa.edu.au .

    Three positions, funded through The Australian Research Council and National
    Institute of Health (USA) are available immediately. Further funding to
    collaborate with ETH Zurich is forthcoming. Candidates with a Bachelor
    degree or equivalent in any area of Mathematics, Physics, Engineering,
    Computer Science, Neuroscience, Anatomy or other related fields are
    encouraged to apply. Experience with finite element analysis, mesh free
    methods, image analysis or graphics hardware would be a distinct advantage.

    Approved candidates with First Class Honours or equivalent will receive
    tuition fee waiver and scholarships of A$20000 - A$28000, depending on the
    choice of the project.

    Teaching assistantships are available on top of the scholarship.

    Funding is available for three and a half years for PhD candidates and for
    two years for MSc candidates.

    Interested candidates should send their expressions of interest to:
