The Developmental Biomechanics group is seeking to add a valuable new member to our research group. We are looking to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Associate to work on a collaborative project investigating how fetal movements affect the development of the spinal column. The project offers an exciting opportunity to apply developmental biology techniques to a biomechanical research question that is clinically relevant. The position will be based in the Nowlan group working closely with collaborators in the University of Cambridge and in the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York, USA. The Research 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 experimental and computational techniques- more information on the group is available at http://nowlan.openwetware.org/. You must have a PhD in Biomechanics or in Developmental Biology (or equivalent) for appointment at Research Associate level.
You will have previous experience working with the murine model system, the musculoskeletal system, and with histology and immunohistochemistry. You will have main author publications in peer-reviewed journals and a successful track record of presenting research as main author at international conferences Experience with developmental model systems and with the spine are desired.
