Do you have the skills and desire to shape the future of multiscale musculoskeletal modeling for human health? Healthy joints are essential for mobility, independence and quality of life. Yet osteoarthritis (OA) is rapidly becoming one of the largest chronic health challenges in the Netherlands and worldwide. The Convergence Health & Technology 'Healthy Joints' Flagship brings together a consortium from TU Delft, Erasmus MC, and Erasmus University Rotterdam to better understand OA and its progression. We are a large team of clinicians, engineers, data scientists, imaging specialists and more, and we are working together to improve prevention, early diagnosis, and personalized treatment for individuals with OA. Our multi-scale approach investigates joint health and disease at the cellular-, tissue-, joint-, whole person-, and societal-levels. The Biomechanical engineering department at TU Delft is seeking a talented and motivated part-time postdoctoral researcher to join our team in a fixed-term position for the final year of the Healthy Joints project. You would be joining the work package focused on "Multiscale modeling pathomechanics of joint and tissue load In vivo". In this role, you would support the team in continuing to build and refine existing multiscale musculos...
