JOB POSTINGS

Research Officer – Biomaterials Engineer, Aust Institute for Bioengineering & Nanotechnology, UQ

This is a full-time, fixed term (up to 12 months) position at Academic level A, commencing in January 2021.

This position will undertake research in the Tissue Engineering and Microfluidics Laboratory, addressing roadblocks in perivascular stem cell manufacturing by discovering novel mechanisms and materials that improve cell quality outcomes during extended culture. You will provide biomaterial and surface design, fabrication, and characterization, along with evaluation through adult stem cell (pericyte)-based assays. You will develop close scientific collaboration with other members of the tissue engineering and microfluidics laboratory and assume a leadership role in polymer synthesis, polymer modification, surface engineering and cell-based assays.

DEGREE POSTINGS

3x PhD positions– Optimization of engineered scaffolds for improved scaffold integration, tissue growth, repair and functional regeneration

Three independent but inter-related PhD projects are available to support a program of research funded under an Australian Research Council Industrial Transformation and Training Centre focussed on Joint Biomechanics (ARC ITTC – JB), a collaboration between UQ, QUT and UNSW, along with multiple industry partners and practicing clinicians. This Centre is focussed on developing the advances required to transform personalised surgical treatment of joints through integrated technologies of computer tools for pre-surgical planning and decision making, computer simulation systems for surgical training and medical device design, development and assessment, and post-surgical assessment tools.

These PhD projects will be joining a newly established UQ-node of the Centre, more specifically, under Program 3 - Scaffold simulator: Optimization of engineered scaffolds for improved scaffold integration, tissue growth, repair and functional regeneration.
