(1) Hypersonic flight materials;
(2) 2D materials;
(3) Shape memory ceramics/alloys;
(4) High entropy alloys;
(5) Biomaterials.
A post-doctoral research fellow position is available in IDEA-Lab of Professor Aleksander Czekanski at York University. This position is part of a project to design and build a 3D printer for super soft tissue. The perspective postdoc is expected to have a PhD in biomechanics, biomedical engineering, or a relevant field. The ideal candidate should have experience in the 3D bioprinting of soft tissue (low stiffness), mathematical modelling of soft tissue, and biocompatibility requirements of bioinks. The prospective applicants should be available to start immediately.
Vacancy exists for high calibre one postdoctoral fellow to join the Innovative Design and Engineering Analysis Laboratory at York University, starting immediately.
The position’s primary area of research will focus on characterization and modelling of elastomers subject to high strain rates.
Requirement:
The Mechanics of Biological Materials/Structures Laboratory at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) is seeking to fill a Postdoctoral Research Associate position working on a NIH supported research project. In this five-year research project, we intend to elucidate the effect of proteoglycans on the age-related deterioration of bone quality and to develop therapeutic strategies for preventing or deterring such adverse effect.
In the Materials and Technology Center of Robotics at Empa (Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology), we are looking for a Ph.D. student in Robotic Materials to perform a pioneering research in bio-hybrid materials for Aerial Robotics.
The Center is based on the institutional partnership between the Imperial College London and Empa.
We invite applications for Postdoctoral Research Fellow positions with the Bio-inspired Robotics & Design Laboratory (http://brd.sutd.edu.sg) at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD).
The Division of Mechanics at Lund University, Sweden, invites highly motivated and creative applicants for a PhD position oriented towards multiscale modelling of yielding and failure of materials subjected to harsh conditions in energy applications (e.g. components in fusion reactors, battery components, etc.). The research program focuses on improving the understanding of the yielding and failure mechanisms, with the ultimate goal to develop atomistically-informed continuum-based theoretical and computational models to predict yielding and failure in energy materials.
The group on “Mechanics of soft and living interfaces” (https://www.lacan.upc.edu/mechanics-of-soft-and-living-interfaces/) lead by Marino Arroyo (https://www.lacan.upc.edu/arroyo/) is looking for a highly motivated and creative postdoctoral researcher to study the mechanical organization of epithelial cells and tissues, and how this understanding can lead to a precise control of tissue structure, mechanical properties, and dynamics.
