[SA_Scat] PDRA Post in 3D SAXS

[Terrill, Nick (DLSLtd,RAL,LSCI)]

Dear All,



As part of new project between QMUL, UCL, UoM, Diamond and ESRF, we have a PDRA post to offer. EPSRC funded, the project will couple synchrotron micro-tomography and SAXS to enable imaging of fibrillar tissue in joints and intervertebral discs. The bioengineering challenge is to determine the correlated 3D deformation and structural changes at the molecular-, fibrillar-, and cell-matrix length-scales under physiological load in intact tissue, and how these alter in ageing, injury and disease. You will be based at Harwell Campus where Diamond Light Source is located.

Postdoctoral Research Assistant - QMUL24137, see https://tinyurl.com/y4y3lcrw<https://webapps2.is.qmul.ac.uk/jobs/job.action?jobID=5572>
SEMS is seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Assistant to be part of an international EPSRC-funded project (TomoSAXS) to couple synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and phase-contrast micro-tomography (pCT) to enable 3D imaging of fibrillar collagenous tissue in joints and intervertebral discs (IVD). A second PDRA will adapt existing in situ rigs for physiological loading for CT and SAXS imaging.
