Job Description
We are looking for a highly motivated individual with a passion for medical research to assist in the development and characterization of a novel antithrombotic blood vessel coupler for microsurgical anastomoses. We will perform selective grafting of an antithrombotic compound in order to prevent blood from clotting after implantation of the coupler. Subsequently, we will perform a preclinical in vivo study to evaluate the anticoagulant potential of the coupler.
The candidate will work with a team of expert advisors to design and fabricate materials, perform selective grafting of antithrombotic compounds, and test the resulting materials for flow dynamics and blood thrombosis response. Once the material is ready, we will continue with pre-clinical animal testing.
Qualifications
B.Eng. in Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, or equivalent. Experience and expertise in wet lab techniques and computational simulation will be an advantage.
