Earliest start July 1, 2023. NSF HAMMER (https://hammer.osu.edu/) Postdoctoral Researcher or Graduate Research
Assistant (GRA). Activities Brief: The ideal candidate works well as a member of a team of physicians, engineers,
and student research assistants to develop a novel virtual surgical environment that will bring in, primarily, 3D CT
and 3D MR images, prepare the surgical scene, allow the surgeon to conduct a mock procedure (e.g., cutting tissue,
joining tissue) through a Virtual Surgical Planning environment that will be the primary responsibility of this person,
design personalized devices for joining and supporting tissue (e.g., skeletal bracing, vascular stents), with interactive
feedback from biomechanical simulation of the device’s function. The resulting personalized device will be fabricated
locally by colleagues working on Point-of-Care Manufacturing. Appointment: Full time appointment either as (1) GRA in an
Ohio State University doctoral graduate program (i.e., PhD thesis program) or (2) Postdoctoral Researcher in the Materials
Science and Engineering Department. Either role will focus on virtual surgical planning with device design for hybrid
autonomous manufacturing. Prior Training: Experience with 3D graphical user environments and core element programing
e.g., python, visual studio) and environments (Amira, vtk, etc.) 3D medical image processing (i.e., slice segmentation,
3D surface rendering, 3D surface analysis), and computer graphics is highly encouraged; familiarity or experience with
3D object graphical mechanical analysis (e.g., finite element analysis in COMSOL, MATLAB, ANSYS) is useful but not required,
will train; familiarity or experience with metal manufacturing modalities and numerical and/or robotic control of metal
device forming is useful but not required, will train. GRA candidates must be admitted to an Ohio State University
College of Engineering doctoral graduate program (i.e., PhD thesis program). Requires successful completion of a
background check. Qualified candidates may be asked to complete a pre-employment physical, including a drug screen.
Interested parties should send CV and a letter of interest to Dr. David Dean.
