About this position
Yale University is hiring a postdoc in Computational Cardiac Biomechanics through an NIH T32 fellowship. This joint position is between Martin Pfaller’s lab and Sinusas Albert’s Translational Research Imaging Center.
The project focuses on building subject-specific finite element models of the left ventricle to guide hydrogel injection after myocardial infarction. The work uses longitudinal imaging data from echo, CT, and SPECT and tests predictions in a porcine model.
They are looking for candidates with a background in nonlinear continuum mechanics, finite elements, and scientific computing, plus a strong interest in learning the acquisition and post-processing of medical imaging data.
This is a 2–3 year postdoctoral position, paid at Yale’s postdoc salaries, with a flexible start before June 2027. The opportunity is restricted to US citizens or permanent residents.
If you are interested in computational biomechanics, cardiac modeling, and medical imaging, this is a strong translational research opportunity at Yale.
