The Karl Landsteiner University of Health Sciences (KL) offers a research position for three year (starting Dec. 2019) in the Department of Anatomy and Biomechanics (Division Biomechanics, Head: Univ.-Prof. Dieter Pahr):
Your responsibilities:
- Participation in the research project “PrintMyBone – 3D printing of artificial bones from clinical CT data”.
- In particular: use of FDM and SLA printing processes, extension of these printing processes (keywords: “composite materials” and “non-planar slicing”) as well as characterization of 3D printed parts (mechanical testing, micro-CT imaging). The goal is to create 3D printed structures that mimic the mechanical properties of human bones and can be used for precise, repeatable tests for the development of medical devices or for training purposes.
- Submission of research applications, participation in third-party funded projects
- Supervision of students and participation in teaching
Your profile:
- Master degree in biomedical engineering, mechanical or civil engineering, technical physics, material sciences or similar fields
- handicraft skills and enjoyment of manual laboratory work
- Basic knowledge of image processing and programming
- Interest in 3D printing and scientific work
- Reliable and independent way of working
- Friendly and team oriented personality
Your Perspektive:
You can expect a challenging job in a highly motivated team with the possibility to achieve the academic degree of a PhD (Dr. techn.)
People with disabilities who meet the required qualification criteria are expressly invited to apply and are given special consideration. The minimum classification is € 2,100 gross per month.
