About this position

Carnegie Mellon University’s Department of Mechanical Engineering is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate to join a highly collaborative computational modeling effort at the intersection of mechanics, transport, imaging, and cardiovascular medicine. The project focuses on building a new generation of multiscale computational models that link microstructural tissue mechanics, microvascular flow and transport, and tissue function across both in vivo human tissue and in vitro engineered tissue systems.

The postdoctoral researcher will work closely with experimental, computational, and clinical investigators as part of a tightly integrated team spanning CMU and other universities. The role emphasizes the development of fundamentally new computational methods with direct biological and translational impact, supporting an ambitious international effort to improve understanding of coronary microvascular disease.

The position is embedded in a broad Mechanical Engineering environment at Carnegie Mellon, where faculty and researchers work across advanced manufacturing, bioengineering, computational engineering, energy and the environment, product design, and robotics. The appointee is expected to contribute to collaborative research that connects tissue microstructure and local mechanical and transport processes to emergent tissue-level functions, while helping advance reproducible and interdisciplinary science.
