using commercial as well as, in-house developed software, to assess the
effect of osteolytic defects on the 3D structural competence of the
spines and to assist in the segmentation and creation of image-based FEA
models for analysis of test results. Experience with data acquisition
(LabView) computational (ABAQUS) and data analysis based software is
highly desirable. Duties will also include project management,
