Three fixed-term Postdoctoral Researchers at the Centre of Excellence in Body-on-Chip Research (CoEBoC)

The Faculty of Biomedical Science and Engineering at Tampere University of Technology (TUT) was formed in the beginning of 2017 by joining the research groups of TUT experienced in the areas of sensor technology and biomeasurements, biophysics, signal processing, imaging, biomaterials, tissue engineering, single cell biology, computational and systems biology, and computational neuroscience. Currently we have 16 full and tenure professors and 150 other staff. We provide education in bioengineering, electrical engineering and materials science degree programs via Majors and Minors of Biomedical Engineering, Bioimaging, Biomaterials, Biomeasurements, Computational Biology, Health Informatics Intelligent Microsystems, Micro Mechatronics, and Tissue Engineering.

Requirements: Postdoctoral Researcher for the development of microfluidics in Organ- and Body-on-Chip systems. For position, you must have a doctoral degree in a field relevant to the research programme, a high-level scientific expertise in a theme appropriate to the CoEBoC programme and an excellent international publication record in the field of microfluidics, Bio-MEMS, biosensing, microfabrication, or from a closely related field.

Postdoctoral Researcher for development of 3D bioimaging. For position, you must have a doctoral degree and an excellent international publication record in a field relevant to bioimaging and a scientific expertise in a theme appropriate to the CoEBoC programme. Advantage is given to applicants with expertise on X-ray micro CT tomography, or optical 3D bioimaging methods, and physics or biochemistry of the bioimaging.

Postdoctoral Researcher for either development of 3D-scaffolds (polymer or polymer-based composite) or surface functionalization. In the project, the aim is to develop functionalized scaffolds, topografies and structures for body-on-chip research. For position, you must have a PhD degree in a field relevant to the research programme. Studies in fields such as polymer chemistry, biomaterials, material science and/or tissue engineering, are requested from the applicant.
