job

We are looking for highly motivated and creative PhD researchers to study the mechanical organization of epithelial cells and tissues through theory, computations and tight interaction with experimental collaborators, and to use this understanding to a precisely control tissue structure, mechanical properties, and dynamics. The ultimate goal is to predict the behavior of living matter, manipulate it, and use it to engineer new bio-inspired technologies. If selected, you will work in a highly interdisciplinary environment, in an expanding group headed by Prof.

A postdoctoral associate position is available at Department of Petroleum Engineering, Texas A&M University in the area of resistivity characterization of geomaterials. Experimental characterization at nano-scale will be combined with modeling techniques to get insight into electrical properties of geomaterials at fundamental length scales. 

Expected qualifications:
A Ph.D. in materials science, engineering or a related field is required. The candidate should have a strong background

 We are looking for a Research Fellow to work on the penetration resistance of concrete subjected to high velocity projectile impact (see description in attached file). To apply, please send a single pdf file including cover letter, cv, list of publications and the contact details of 2 references, to ceeplh [at] nus.edu.sg

A PhD/masters position is available in AMMI Lab at University of Hawaii at Manoa in the field of surgical robotics.
