PhD student (1 post)
To conduct experimental investigations, supplemented with necessary simulations, on the mechanoregulation of cancer cells (in a joint research effort with the Clinical Oncology Department of Queen Elizabeth Hospital). The main goal of this project is to find out whether the activity and fate of various cancer cells can be directed by mechanical cues as well as explore its clinical applications.
REQUIREMENTS: a BS in bioengineering, mechanical engineering or related disciplines. Applicants with research experience (for example, as a M.S. student), and/or knowledge in handling/culturing biological cells and using instruments like atomic force microscope (AFM) and optical traps are preferred.
PhD student (1post)
To examine the biological and mechanical role of microtubule in the cell cytoskeleton. In particular, both experiments and simulations will be designed and subsequently performed to dissect the roles of microtubules in important processes such as cell division and cell motility. The focus can be tilted to either the experimental or modeling part depending on the background and preference of the student.
REQUIREMENTS: a BS in bioengineering, mechanics, mechanical engineering or related disciplines. Applicants with research experience (for example, as a M.S. student), and/or knowledge in handling cells/proteins, programming and using instruments like atomic force microscope (AFM) are preferred.
