Postdoctoral Researcher
|
Swarthmore
|
|
| This NSF-funded position is for an interdisciplinary research project aimed at investigating how short-range forces generate long-range order in extreme tissue deformations using Hydra as an experimental system. Hydra is uniquely suitable for in vivo biomechanics studies due to optical transparency and amenability to chemical, physical, and genetic perturbations. Its simple anatomy makes it amenable to mathematical modeling. This position combines both experiments and modeling. The position is research focused but offers options for teaching and mentoring undergraduate students. Thus, this position is especially well-suited for individuals interested in a career at a primary undergraduate institution. It will provide opportunities for gaining teaching experience and guidance in developing a competitive research program amenable to undergraduate research. It also provides plenty of avenues to interact with faculty, postdocs, and undergraduate students in other departments at Swarthmore College, with colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania (only a 20-minute drive away), and national and international collaborators. |
