    Postdoctoral Research Associate Position at University of Pittsburgh

    We are looking for an engineering postdoctoral research associate to join
    our labs dedicated to studying musculoskeletal biomechanics. We combine in
    vivo, in vitro, and in silico (computer modeling) approaches in our
    research. The postdoctoral associate will be involved in the integration of
    all three approaches. Experience with biomechanical modeling (dynamic
    simulation and FEM) is essential, but an applicant should also be
    comfortable with human subject and cadaveric specimen testing. Extensive
    resources are available for in vitro biomechanical testing, in vivo joint
    function (including high-speed biplane radiography), and computer modeling.
    This person will also assist in writing research grants and manuscripts,
    preparing research presentations, coordinating projects and supervising
    students. We expect this person to be self-motivated, have a strong work
    ethic, excellent verbal and written communication skills. We provide great
    opportunities and a very collegial environment to work collaboratively with
    a team of scientists, clinicians, research fellows, students, orthopaedic
    fellows and residents.

    The applicant should have a PhD degree in mechanical engineering,
    bioengineering, biomedical engineering, or a related discipline. The
    position is for a minimum of two years, with renewal dependent on
    performance and continued availability of funding. Salary is commensurate
    with credentials.

    Interested individuals please send CV (including contact information for 3
    references), cover letter, and sample publications or write-ups to Dr.
    Xudong Zhang, either via e-mail (orls.pitt@gmail.com), or regular mail to
    the following address:
