This role will be a key contributor to a large multi-university team collaboration on muscle biophysics and movement in unsteady conditions.

Responsibilities
  • Conduct experimental and theoretical research in biophysics, with a focus on muscle physiology and biomechanics.
  • Develop and implement novel experimental techniques to study muscle function and behavior.
  • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of researchers, including biologists, physicists, applied mathematicians, and mechanical engineers.
  • Mentor undergraduate and graduate students in the research group.
Requirements
  • PhD in Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Biophysics, Materials Science, or a related field.
  • Background in experimental biophysics, biophysical modeling, soft matter, x-ray scattering or diffraction, muscle physiology, biomechanics, or related disciplines.
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
What We Offer

The Postdoctoral Fellow will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and collaborative research environment, with access to state-of-the-art facilities and equipment. The position offers a competitive salary and benefits package, as well as opportunities for professional development and growth.
