About this position

Amsterdam UMC and TU Delft are recruiting for a joint, multidisciplinary project in biomedical engineering, musculoskeletal modeling, biomechanics, and cerebral palsy.

Openings: one Postdoctoral researcher and one PhD student.

Postdoc project: develop personalized musculoskeletal foot and ankle models based on WBCT and gait analysis data. The goal is to estimate joint loads before and after treatment, and to study how these loads change with growth.

PhD project: develop statistical shape models and finite element models of the growing foot to investigate normal bone development and how this process is altered in children with cerebral palsy, with the aim of informing better treatment strategies.

Research environment: Amsterdam UMC, in collaboration with TU Delft, with supervision involving Marjolein van der Krogt, Ajay Seth, Nazli Tumer, and Annemieke Buizer.

Eligibility highlights: the post indicates a multidisciplinary profile suited to candidates with interest or experience in musculoskeletal modeling, gait analysis, finite element modeling, statistical shape modeling, and pediatric rehabilitation. No explicit deadline, funding amount, or formal entry requirements are stated in the provided text.

How to apply: use the vacancy links provided in the post to access the official application pages for the postdoc and PhD positions. Follow the instructions on the career pages and submit the required materials through the relevant portal.
