[交流] 西弗吉尼亚大学化学工程学院杨勇教授诚招博士生一到两名(生物医学工程研究方向)

PhD student recruitment

The Micro and Nanoengineering in Stem Cell Innovations Laboratory (https://web.statler.wvu.edu/~yong.yang/index) in the Department of Chemical Engineering at West Virginia University (WVU) is seeking PhD students with motivation, ingenuity, and ability to work in a diverse, highly dynamic environment. The students are expected to start in the fall semester of 2016.

Research Projects: The lab research focuses on delineation of cell-matrix interactions by engineering defined micro and nanoscale systems and applying the mechanistic understanding to regenerative medicine and drug development. The perspective students will work on developing and applying micro and nanotechnologies in cellular biomechanics and central nervous system (CNS) disease research. One project is to investigate how stem cells retain nanotopographical information from past culture environments and the nanotopographical memory can influence future fate decision of stem cells. This project is supported by National Science Foundation. Another project is to build a microfluidic blood-brain barrier model in collaboration with WVU Health Sciences Center. The students will receive extensive training in micro-/nanofabrication and molecular/cellular biology and work closely with researchers in Health Science Center at WVU, and thus being well prepared for both academic and industrial career in the future.

Qualification: The prospective student should have a degree (bachelor or master) in Chemical Engineering. The applicants with experience in cell biology and microfabrication (in particular, microfluidics) will be favorably considered.

Offer: The research assistantship, which the student will be awarded, is US$30,000 for the first year and will be increased by 2% afterwards, plus the tuition waived.

Location: West Virginia University is located in Morgantown, West Virginia. Morgantown is one of the best small cities in the country, noted for its strong economy and quality of life. It is also an excellent place for outdoor activities such as hiking, rafting, skiing and hunting.  (https://www.morgantownwv.gov/)



西弗吉尼亚大学微纳米工程干细胞创新实验室(https://web.statler.wvu.edu/~yong.yang/index)诚招博士研究生,可在2016年秋季入学。如果你已经准备好所有的申请材料,包括TOFEL和GRE成绩,请马上与杨教授联系。

研究课题:该实验室的研究主要集中在通过设计和制造微和纳米级系统来了解细胞和外基质的相互作用,并将这些机理性认识应用于再生医学和药物研发。未来的学生将致力于开发和应用微观和纳米技术在细胞生物力学和中枢神经系统疾病的研究。其中一个课题是研究干细胞如何受过去的细胞培养环境纳米形貌影响以及过去的纳米形貌记忆如何影响干细胞未来的增殖和分化。该项目由美国国家科学基金会的支持。另一个课题是与西弗吉尼亚大学健康科学中心合作建立血脑屏障微流体模型来研究中枢神经系统疾病。通过博士阶段学习和研究,学生将收到微纳米加工与分子和细胞生物学的培训,为未来的学术界或工业界职业做好准备。
基本要求:未来的学生应有化学工程学士或硕士学位。有细胞生物学和微细加工研究经验(特别是微流体)的申请者将被优先考虑

奖学金:第一年学生奖学金是30,000美元,之后将会2%增加,外加免学费。

位置:西弗吉尼亚大学位于西弗吉尼亚州Morgantown。Morgantown是在全国最好的小城市之一。Morgantown也是一个极好的户外活动,如远足,漂流,滑雪和狩猎的好地方。(https://www.morgantownwv.gov/)
