    ***** POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS *****
    CARTILAGE TISSUE ENGINEERING SCIENCE
    UC San Diego, Department of Bioengineering

    Two NIH-funded positions are expected to become available
    on 4/1/97 to support investigations on the biomechanics,
    biomechanical regulation of signal transduction and gene
    expression, and extracellular matrix remodelling in
    aging, repair, and osteoarthritic human articular cartilage.

    The positions are within an interdisciplinary research group
    within the UCSD Department of Bioengineering that focuses
    on basic science aspects of Cartilage Tissue Engineering.
    Examples of our recent studies include:
    * Reindel et al. J Orthop Res 13:751-760, 1995
    * Schinagl et al. Ann Biomed Eng 24:500-512, 1996

    The research project is part of an expanding multi-investigator
    program that involves active collaborations with established
    investigators in the UCSD Departments of Bioengineering,
    Orthopaedic Surgery, Medicine-Rheumatology, and Biomedical
    Sciences, as well as expert collaborators outside of UCSD.

    UCSD offers a cohesive and stimulating overall academic
    environment for postdoctoral scientists to engage in the study
    of human disease mechanisms and therapies from a Biomedical
    Engineering perspective. Core bioengineering facilities, training
    courses, and workshops that facilitate advances in Tissue
    Engineering Science at UCSD are supported, in part, by an
    ongoing Development Award from the Whitaker Foundation.

    Please send a statement of interests and CV to:

    It will be especially convenient for those who are planning to attend
    the Annual Meeting of the Orthopaedic Research Society in San
    Fransisco on Feb. 9-13 to inquire and apply before then. I would
    like to meet with individuals interested in these positions at the
    ORS. Thank you.
