Postdoctoral Positions in Cell Biomechanics at Harvard
The Disease Biophysics Group in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences has a postdoctoral fellowship available for PhD/DSc scientists with backgrounds in cellular biomechanics. The applicants should have training in cell tissue culture, microscopy, and assays for probing the mechanical properties of cells, such as traction force microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and/or the use of magnetic tweezers.
Applicants should forward their CV (pdf) and examples of up to three manuscripts (pdf). Please have three references emailed to Professor Parker directly.
Post-Doctoral Fellowships with Dr. T. Belytschko at Northwestern University
We are no longer accepting applications for these positions. Qualified applicants will be contacted in the near future.
Thank you for your interest,
Robert Gracie
