PhDds in 3d Bioprinting, Active Microfluidics and Microscale Engineering University and affiliation: University of Melbourne, Melbourne School of Engineering Preferred background: Any Engineering discipline PhD positions are available to work with Dr. David Collins, who is a new faculty member in the Biomedical Engineering Department at the University of Melbourne. Dr. Collins is a leading researcher in the field of high-frequency acoustics in microfluidic systems, with 26 publications in well recognised journals and more than 840 citations, and is looking to expand his work into tailored bioprinting and advanced microfluidic devices. The University of Melbourne is the top ranked university in Australia, and is located in one of the most liveable cities on the planet. Melbourne is famous for it's mild weather, relaxed lifestyle and cafe culture. We are looking for highly motivated and engaged PhD candidates to start in early to mid 2019. International candidates and visiting scholars will be considered. Applicants can register their interests for two projects: Project 1 (3d bioprinting) and/or Project 2 (microfluidics/microengineering) Project 1: bioprinting has the promise to replace human tissues that are damaged by injury or disease. Bioprinting involves extruding a cell-laden hydrogel in a specific configuration, with cells subsequently proliferating in this hydrogel matrix. Despite the promise of this technology, there is currently no way to replicate many tissue functions because there is no reliable way to replicate the single-cell configurations found in real-life organs. This project aims to use microscale forces (acoustic, electrical, hydrodynamic, etc.) to manipulate at the single-cell level to create functional human tissues with a view toward creating therapies and research tools. This interdisciplinary project lies at the intersection of biomedical engineering, mechanical engineering, microfluidics and cell biology. Prospective students with experience or special interest in - cell culture; - 3d printing; - microfabrication; - biomedical technology; - computer simulation; and - microscale physics are encouraged to apply. Successful applicants will be expected to conduct research at a high level and publish in internationally recognised journals. Students will be givenwide latitude to determine specific methods and research directions that serve the project goal. Project 2: High frequency acoustic fields are unique in the context of micromanipulation systems because they permit non-contact and biocompatible arrangement and sorting of micro/nanoparticles and cells. For example, recent work from the supporting faculty member has demonstrated a novel method for focusing and sorting particles that is uniquely suitable for high-throughput nanoparticle filtration, and the burgeoning field of designed acoustic waveguides will permit designed acoustic fields for non-uniform microscale patterning. Both have wide application in topics such as cell and bioparticle sorting for therapeutics, industrial separation/purification, 3d printing and biofabrication. Topics and projects include: - microfabrication of novel piezoelectric transducers for designed acoustic fields in lab-on-a-chip systems, - design and implementation of microfluidic systems for cell sorting and nanoparticle filtration, and - potential for student-led ideas for research in fluid dynamics, microacoustics and biosensing. Dr. Collins is building an interdisciplinary team that draws on different backgrounds for research at the intersection of microscale engineering andcell biology. Students with an interest or experience in physics, microfabrication, fluid mechanics, analytical modelling, fem simulation and cell culture are encouraged to apply. Successful applicants will be expected to conduct research at a high level and publish in internationally recognised journals, and will be based at the centre for neural engineering at the university of melbourne. students will be given wide latitude and independence to determine specific methods and research directions. Requirements: An undergraduate or graduate degree with upper class honours in biomedical engineering, mechanical engineering or materials engineering is preferred, though applicants with other degrees or experience in science or engineering (chemical engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, aerospace engineering) will be considered. Only IELTS scores above 6.5 or an equivalent score in a different test will be considered. Application: Please send your CV, transcripts and brief overview of relevant experience and interests to david.collins@unimelb.edu.au. YourCV should contain a list of academic or work references. Prospective students must meet University of Melbourne eligibility criteria to be awarded a PhD scholarship - please highlight your university grades in your email. Visit this link for more details on scholarship eligibility and application information: https://scholarships.unimelb.edu.au/awards/graduate-research-scholarships The living allowance is approximately $30,000 AUD [approx. 147,000 Yuan] per year for up to 3.5 years for students undertaking a PhD. |
