biological tissues
Postdoc position, modeling growth, differentiation and adaptation of biological tissues
Submitted by azadpoor on Wed, 2011-12-21 18:13.I have a one-year vacant postdoc position. The work will be mostly related to development of FE models for modeling growth, differentiation, and adaptation of biological tissues. The postdoc needs to know a lot about nonlinear continuum mechanics and advanced material models and should be able to write FE codes and implement advanced material models in commercial FE programs.
There is a strong collaboration between my research group in Delft University of Technology (TUDelft) and Prof. Harrie Weinans’ research group in Erasmus Medical Center (Rotterdam). Most experimental works on tissues will be done in collaboration with them.

Post-doc position in meso-scale modeling and experiments on natural and biological materials
Submitted by vikastomar on Wed, 2008-02-27 16:23.Expected starting date: April 01, 2008 (if no issue with work VISA for international applicants)
Salary: Negotiable
Duration: One year with a possibility of another year's extension subjected to availability of funds.
Reponsiblity: Work with two graduate students and one faculty in a core group focussed on experimental and simulation based bio-nanomechanical analyses of biomaterials. We are in need of a PhD with sound knowledge of fundementals related to the "keywords/tags" in the message to execute the research plans in a fast manner. We have in-house availability of the state of the art in computational as well as experimental resources. Please email me at vikas.tomar@nd.edu with your CV to discuss more. Thanks.
