Deva Chan

Purdue University’s Chan Lab in the Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for work in hyaluronan biology , mechanobiology , and biomechanics . The project spans multiple scales, from cell-level questions to systems-level behavior, and includes research directions such as animal models , matrix/ECM biology , and nano-to micro-scale biomechanics . This is an NIH-funded postdoc position at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, United States. The role is renewable for up to 4 years . The lab notes that the successful candidate should bring expertise that can help push the work in new directions while staying connected to the lab’s core questions. Eligibility highlights: applicants should hold a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering, biology, or a related field. Preferred expertise includes animal models, matrix and/or mechanobiology, or nano-to micro-scale biomechanics. Strong project management, communication, and mentorship skills are also expected. Candidates who can start within 6 months are preferred. Application: review the details at the application link and submit materials by email rather than through LinkedIn. The post indicates that applicants should provide a cover letter , CV , and contact information for three references . Review begins immediately. Research keywords: hyaluronan science, mechanobiology, biomechanics, ECM biology, AFM-based techniques, biomedical engineering, animal models.
