Two positions for guest researchers(post-doc) at NIST on biomechanics
Email: martin.chiang@nist.gov
Homepage: http://www.nist.gov/msel/polymers/biomaterials/martin_chiang.cfm
Research area: Biomechanics
-----------------------------------
Position 1: The prospective guest researcher (post-doc) will explore the
effect of mechanical stimuli on cell activities and phenotype and start
January 2010 or earlier, at the Polymers Division of National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST).
Position 2: The prospective guest researcher (post-doc) will explore the
deformation and mass transport effect on cell adhesion development and start
March 2010 or earlier, at the Polymers Division of National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST).
The research plan involves constitutive relations of materials, mathematical
modeling and numerical computations. This immediate opening offers
successful candidates a unique opportunity (two years and plus) to pursue
research in the area of biomechanics.
This interdisciplinary research program requires the prospective applicant
to have a strong background in solid mechanics with the emphases on general
computational mechanics (finite element analysis), and an interest in
biophysics (candidates without prior experience on biophysics are
acceptable).
NIST campus sites on beautiful grounds in Gaithersburg located 20 miles from
Washington, D.C. The pleasant surroundings and the wide range of technical
expertise and disciplines represented by the 3000 NIST personnel ensure a
stimulating environment that encourages scientific growth and achievement.
