As part of the EPSRC project entitled 'Innovative photomechanical approaches in identification of the dynamic mechanical behaviour of materials', a PhD position is still open to EU/UK applicants.
This post-doctoral position at the University of Southampton (UK) is for three years. Please apply here.
Current challenges in medicine and engineering are related to the application of computational methods to clinical medicine and the study of biological systems at different scales. Based on the tremendous advances in medical imaging and high-performance computing, engineering is able to help in medical decision processes or implant designs. Thus, the complex development of innovative degradable and non-degradable implants can only be addressed by a multidisciplinary approach of physicians, natural scientis, and engineers from a wide range of specialisation.
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position within the Micro and Nano Mechanics Laboratory in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Northwestern University. The candidate will perform research in the area of nanomechanics of high-performance materials such as 2D materials, nanowires, and biomaterials. The candidate will be expected to contribute to a vibrant multidisciplinary research group and be able to work in close collaboration with chemists and theoreticians.
Requirements:
