About this position
Fully funded PhD and Master's graduate assistantship positions are available in the Sensing Microphysiology and Living Systems Laboratory (SMALL) group at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore.
The project is supported by a newly funded NSF grant and focuses on developing biosensors for the characterization of blood cells. Research sits at the interface of biosensors, microfluidics, biomedical engineering, mechanical/electrical/optical sensing, and cell characterization.
Students will gain hands-on experience in device design, fabrication, experimental testing, data analysis, and biomedical applications. The work also includes biosensor or organ-on-chip development, microfluidic platforms, biomechanics modeling for blood cell analysis, and applications in blood-related and blood-interfacing disease diagnostics and drug testing.
Applicants with backgrounds in biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or related fields are encouraged to apply. Helpful experience includes biosensors, microfluidic device fabrication, CAD, MATLAB/Python/C++, multiphysics simulation, advanced microscopy, image analysis, mammalian cell culture, immunobiology, signal processing, and machine learning/computer vision.
Funding is described as a fully funded graduate assistantship; PhD students receive stipend and tuition support, and Master's students also have funded assistantship opportunities. The position is available immediately.
To apply, email Dr. Yuhao Qiang with a CV, unofficial transcripts, and a short statement of research interests.
