The Biomechanics Group have been awarded funding from the EPSRC in the field of implant-bone biomechanics (more details here). This project will building upon the researchthat won the 2018 Excellence in Translational Science Award from the Journal of Orthopaedic Research.
We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position to develop and apply a new in vitro bioreactor model to investigate and optimise bone ingrowth into these additive manufactured orthopaedic implants.
The appointed postdoc will have access to the state-of-the-art facilities required for this research including a fully-equipped tissue laboratory with a bioreactor mechanical testing system, as well as a Medical Device Prototype & Manufacture Unit complete with additive manufacturing machines and micro-CT scanner.
This post will be based in the open and collaborative Biomechanics Group (website, newsfeed), which brings together scientists, engineers and clinicians to address interdisciplinary challenges in orthopaedic research. The lab is based in Imperial College London, a university ranked in the top 10 worldwide, located in the city centre of London
Informal queries relating to the position should be directed to Dr Richard van Arkel at r.vanarkel@imperial.ac.uk or +44 (0)20 7594 6157.
