标 题: post-doc position in brain biomechanics at Dartmouth College
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Thu Nov 15 13:10:00 2012, 美东)
Post-doctoral Associate in brain biomechanics is available at Dartmouth
College, Hanover, NH
A post-doctoral associate position is available in the Thayer School of
Engineering, Dartmouth College. This position will support research in
biomechanics of the human brain in vivo and the mechanisms of traumatic
brain injury in the context of sports-related concussion, using stereovision
, image-analysis, and finite element modeling. Applicants are expected to
have an earned Ph.D. degree in mechanical engineering or biomedical
engineering, or a closely related field. Experience with MATLAB, image
analysis, and finite element modeling (e.g., Abaqus) is essential. This
position will involve working with a team of biomechanical researchers and
clinicians to analyze stereoscopic images of exposed brain surfaces from
patients undergoing open-skull neurosurgery, as well as to simulate brain
responses under external impact to study the mechanisms of sports-related
concussion. The post-doc associate will also be expected to participate in
preparing research articles, presenting research findings at conference
meetings, and contributing to grants. Therefore, excellent writing and
communication skills are important.
Dartmouth College is an Ivy League institution. Our lab works closely with
researchers in the Advanced Imaging Center and Advanced Surgical Center,
Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, as well as with other faculty in the
engineering school and school of medicine.
Interested applicants please send a cover letter, CV, and a list of 3
professional references to S********[email protected]. This position will
remain open until filled.
Qualifications:
A Ph.D. in mechanical engineering or biomedical engineering, or a closely
related field, with experience with MATLAB, image-analysis, and finite
element modeling.
