The Developmental Biomechanics group is seeking to add a valuable new member to our research group. We are looking to appoint a Postdoctoral researcher to work on a mechanobiological modelling project investigating how fetal movements affect the prenatal joint. The project offers an exciting opportunity to apply computational simulation techniques to a biomechanical research question that is clinically relevant. The Research Assistant/Associate will be part of the exciting and world-renowned Department of Bioengineering at Imperial, based in the centre of the vibrant city of London.
The ideal candidate will start as soon as possible and make the most of this excellent opportunity. We especially value applicants from diverse backgrounds who can add new skills and expertise to our group. The group investigates the importance of mechanical forces for prenatal skeletal development using both experimental and computational techniques- more information on the group is available at http://nowlan.openwetware.org/.
You must have a PhD (or equivalent) in Biomechanics for appointment at Research Associate level.
You will have extensive, demonstrable experience with mechanobiological modelling using finite element analysis. You will be proficient with Matlab and have an in-depth understanding of solid mechanics. You will have main author publications in high-impact peer-reviewed journals in the Biomechanics or Biomedical Engineering fields, and a successful track record of presenting research as main author at international conferences. Experience with soft tissue biomechanics and 3D image processing are desired.
