Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research position which will be joint between the Computational Mechanics Laboratory within the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at NYU-Poly and the Division of Cardiology at NYU School of Medicine. The selected postdoctoral fellow will participate in a vibrant interdisciplinary research group and will be involved in are search effort which aims to construct multiscale models of the mechano-fluidic behavior of the aortic heart valve. This research involves collaborations between basic science researchers and clinical investigators.

Requirements:
- Ph.D. in bioengineering, biomedical engineering, mechanical engineering, computational biology, computational materials science or a related field.
- Experience in at least two of the following areas: finite element modeling, computational fluid dynamics, tissue engineering, or molecular mechanics modeling.
- Experience in scientific computing (Fortran, C, or C programming,parallel computing, and Unix/Linux computing environments).
- Strong verbal and written communication skills.
- Demonstrated ability to work independently in a multidisciplinary research environment.

Note:
The initial appointment will be for one year, with a possibility of renewal contingent upon the availability of continuing funding and satisfactory performance.
