The Center for Bioactive Materials and Tissue Engineering has several open positions for Postdoctoral Researchers. Center faculty, drawn from School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, the School of Dental Medicine and the School of Medicine, represent research groups that work in a collaborative manner on the interactions between skeletal tissues and biomaterials.
All projects combine bioengineering approaches with cell and molecular biology techniques.
Areas of investigation include materials synthesis, materials surface analysis, implantation studies, molecular biological analysis of material tissue interactions and more. A Ph.D. in bioengineering, materials science, biochemistry or molecular biology is required. The Orthopaedic Research Laboratory of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania is seeking applicants for postdoctoral fellowship positions in orthopaedic biomechanics or tissue engineering. Potential projects include studies of tendon injury, repair, healing, and regeneration, as well as studies on the biomechanics of the shoulder and elbow. Inc. The Orthopaedic Research Laboratory has recently completed a major renovation including design of new laboratory facilities on campus, purchase of new equipment, and the addition of new faculty, staff, and students.
