A postdoctoral research associate opening with a primary focus on atomistic simulations of defects and mechanical behaviors of Mg and Mg alloys is available in Liang Qi’s group (http://cms.engin.umich.edu/) at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Qi’s group is involved in the PRedictive Integrated Structural Materials Science Center (PRISMS), a DOE-BES funded research center dedicated to integrated computational and experimental studies of structural alloys located at University of Michigan.

Several postdoctoral and graduate student openings with primary focus on biomechanics is available immediately in the Shenoy Research Group at the University of Pennsylvania. We are looking for strongly motivated candidates to work on NIH supported projects on a) cell-matrix interactions in fibrosis and cancer and 2) mechanical mechanisms of traumatic brain injury.

The University of Edinburgh and Williams Advanced Engineering is looking for an enthusiastic PhD candidate to develop novel, lightweight, high-performance composite structures and materials for application within multiple industry sectors.

There is an opening for a post-doctoral scholar in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and the Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute at Johns Hopkins University.

Applications are invited for a post-doctoral position at the University of Pavia, Italy, with Prof. Epifanio Virga (http://matematica.unipv.it/it/people/2026). The proposed research theme is

MATHEMATICAL MODELS FOR ADVANCED SOFT MATERIALS

The call (both in Italian and English) together with the application forms (in both languages, but only one needs to be filled in) can be found at the following addresses:

Dear colleagues,

Richard Norte and I are looking for a postdoctoral scholar with interest in machine learning and good knowledge on finite element analyses.

This project is focused on computational mechanics in collaboration with a strong group on opto-mechanical devices.

For more information please check the following link:

Applications are invited for a position as Associate Professor or Tenure Track Assistant Professor at the Department of Chemistry (chem.au.dk) and affiliated with the Aarhus University Center for Integrated Materials Research (iMAT) within the field of Structural Materials Science Using Neutrons. The intended start is spring 2020 or as soon as possible.

Several fully supported Ph.D. positions are open for fall 2019 in the Advanced Hierarchical Materials by Design Lab at Louisiana Tech University on multiscale modeling of additively manufactured parts and processes. During this project, the candidate will have the opportunity to collaborate with NASA research centers, national labs, and different universities across the nation such as MIT and LSU.

The Postdoctoral Scholar is responsible for independent and collaborative development, implementation, and analysis of scientific research in the discipline of computational and experimental biomechanics. Responsibilities include management of all aspects of research related to biomechanical characterization and computer modeling of biological tissue and implants in Vahdati Lab. The research projects include investigation of mechanopathologies of soft and calcified tissue and design of personalized medical devices.

Colleagues:

Please share the attached recruitment flyer with your post-docs or fresh PhD students. This is an open rank and open discipline search. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
