PhD position at the interface of biomechanics, fluid/ solid/ cell mechanics, soft matter and medical devices at UCL

We are looking for high calibre PhD candidates (exceptional international applicants are considered).

Please contact me if interested.

The main aim of this PhD project is to investigate the role of cell biomechanical properties in cellular interactions with fluid flow and complex geometries. To achieve the main aim, the student will employ a range of advanced computational and experimental approaches.
Supervisory panel, environment and training: The PhD project will be jointly supervised by Professors Emad Moeendarbary (extensive expertise in cell mechanics and microfluidics) and Ryo Torii (world-leading expert in computational biofluid mechanics) from the Department of Mechanical Engineering. The student will actively collaborate (through regular meetings and a short industrial placement) with the industrial partner (ANGLE plc). The student will benefit from state-of-the-art mechanical engineering research training, high-performance computing, and experimental laboratories equipped with state-of-the-art technologies, including SEM, AFM and microfabrication tools at UCL and London Centre for Nanotechnology.
