The Hard Tissue Biomechanics Laboratory at the University ofTexas at San Antonio (UTSA) is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Fellow inhard tissue biomechanics and/or nanocomposite. The position is supported by NIH grants throughthe Department of Mechanical Engineering at UTSA.
This position requires a Ph.D. degree in MechanicalEngineering, Materials Science/Engineering, Biophysics, Bioengineering, or arelated field and willingness to conduct research in a multidisciplinary environment(engineers, biologist, clinicians, biophysicists, etc.). The incumbent isexpected to lead the research projects, mentor undergraduate and graduatestudents, attend conferences, write grants, and publish high quality papers. Applicantswith the experience in one or more of the following research areas arepreferred:
1) Structure-function relationship of mineralized tissues.
2) Computational biomechanics.
3) Bioinspired nanocomposite.
4) Nanomechanics of biological materials.
Interested candidates should send to Dr. Xiaodu Wang (Xiaodu.wang@utsa.edu) an application ofPDF file, comprising a letter (explaining research interests, goals, andqualifications), a CV, three relevant publications, and contact information ofat least three references. Applications will be reviewed until the position is filled.The position is for 2 years and extendable pending of available funding. Theexpected start date is September/October of 2014.
