About this position
Two research openings are available in the HappyJoints Research group at KU Leuven, embedded within Ilse Jonkers’ recently funded ERC Advanced Grant OA-CONNECT. The project aims to understand how mechanical loading drives cartilage health and osteoarthritis progression across scales, from whole-joint mechanics to cellular responses.
The opportunities include a Postdoc position in knee mechanobiology and a PhD position focused on computer-based analysis of cartilage loading. These roles are well suited to candidates with interests in biomedical engineering, mechanical engineering, biology, medical science, and computational analysis of musculoskeletal systems.
The post is shared by Bryce Killen, who appears to be an academic recruiter connected with KU Leuven. The announcement highlights the research theme and the two vacancy links, but does not provide detailed salary, stipend, or deadline information in the text provided.
Interested applicants should review the official KU Leuven vacancy pages for the postdoc and PhD roles, check the specific eligibility criteria, and apply through the university recruitment system. The LinkedIn post and KU Leuven job pages are the main sources for the application details.
