Poste de maître de conférence (Laboratoire de mécanique des fluides- université de Lille)

L’ouverture d’un poste de maître de conférence dont l’enseignement se fera au département de mécanique de l’université de Lille et dont la recherche se fera au laboratoire de mécanique des fluides de Lille (sur les thématiques du laboratoire: turbulence de paroi, turbulence en rotation, aspect fondamentaux de la turbulence, turbomachines) a été confirmée par l’université. Nous souhaitons atteindre un maximum de candidats potentiels, qui peuvent être expérimentateurs, numériciens ou théoriciens dans ces thématiques, et nous n’avons pas de candidatures en local.

Les candidats intéressés peuvent contacter Jean-Philippe Laval, le directeur du LMFL (jean-philippe.laval@univ-lille.fr) pour discuter des aspects recherche ainsi que Emmanuel Leriche, directeur du département de mécanique de l’université de Lille (emmanuel.leriche@univ-lille.fr) pour discuter de l’enseignement.

A noter que les inscriptions à la qualification au poste de maître de conférence sont toujours ouverte et que les candidats peuvent faire leur dossier s’ils ne sont pas encore qualifiés

Postdoc failure of adhesive interface (Laboratoire Navier)

We open a postdoctoral position for a researcher with an experimental background on adhesion/fracture at Laboratoire Navier (Marne-la-Vallée, France). The goal of the project is to investigate the failure behaviour of micro-patterned adhesive interface. The project is expected to start during the first semester 2023. 

For more information, see the attached file. Do not hesitate to contact us (gwendal.cumunel@enpc.fr, mathias.lebihain@enpc.fr, julien.leopoldes@univ-eiffel.fr).
Best regards,
Gwendal Cumunel, Mathias Lebihain, and Julien Léopoldès

Workshop Active days – Challenges in Active Matter (Cergy, 5-7 Dec 2022)

Active Matter (AM) is a new, fast growing interdisciplinary field at the interface between biology and statistical physics that aims to understand ensembles of active particles. The term “active” refers to the ability of the particle to convert energy into work, e.g. to self-propel. The ultimate goal of Active Matter is to develop a material science of living systems and shed light on highly relevant and diverse topics such as bacterial infections, cancer growth, tissue formation, and embryogenesis, as well as on the design and synthesis of biomimetic materials, which are likely to play a fundamental in medicine in the coming years.

Deadline registration: October 17, 2022

Assistant prof position soft matter (CBE University of Wisconsin-Madison)

The Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has several faculty openings at the assistant professor level. I’m contacting you because one area of importance in this search is soft matter, very broadly defined to include fluid dynamics and transport phenomena, complex fluids, interfacial phenomena, electrochemical processes, biophysics, etc.

Symposium Mechanics Morphogenesis Development and Evolution (Institut Pasteur, 12-13 Dec 2022)

How can mechanics constrain the evolution of shape or be a source  of morphogenetic innovation? The Qbio initiative at Institut Pasteur is organising a two-day symposium in the campus on December 12th and 13th 2022 which will cover the interplay between mechanics, evolution, morphogenesis and development.

This interdisciplinary symposium will combine a large range of approaches (morphometric analysis, modeling, soft-matter physics, comparative morphogenesis, epistemology) and diverse organisms (plants, yeast, algae, cnidarians, insects and vertebrates) with diverse and excellent speakers. This symposium is meant to be an open platform for discussion between physicists, mathematicians and biologists on relevant biological questions, and to foster interactions between topics/systems which normally have few occasions to interact.

The full program can be found on our website https://neuroanatomy.github.io/MeMoDEvo .

Registration is free but mandatory (before November 14th): https://forms.gle/TTLdHmJf1Ajr8bvr9

If you have any query, please contact: memodevo@pasteur.fr

Two junior faculty positions in Mechanical Engineering (EPFL Lausanne)

Dear Colleagues,

I am writing to inform you that we have two open faculty positions at EPFL’s School of Engineering, one in BioMechanics and one in Sustainable Manufacturing. These positions target applicants at the level of tenure-track Assistant Professor. You can find more information on the following link (or the attached flyer): https://www.epfl.ch/about/working/two-faculty-positions-in-mechanical-engineering/

For the position in Sustainable Manufacturing, we seek applicants who will broadly address the engineering challenges related to developing intelligent manufacturing systems while attending to the multiple facets of sustainability. 

For the position in Biomechanics, we seek applicants with a mechanics background who will address research challenges related to developing theoretical and computational models to investigate, and potentially control or design, biological materials and systems.

Could you please circulate this announcement as widely as you see fit? If you know potential top-level candidates for this position, I would be most grateful if you could encourage them to apply and/or let me know.

Best regards,
Pedro

Postdoc liquid jet impingement on a horizontal surface (IEMN Lille)

Dear colleagues,

We have a funded postdoctoral position opening for a researcher with a physics of liquids / soft matter background in the FILMS team at the IEMN (Lille, France). The postdoc is expected to start during the first semester 2023. 

Goal of the postdoc project is to investigate the mechanisms occurring in the liquid jet impingement on a horizontal surface. The research work will be mainly  experimental and part of a wider project (ANR).

For more information, see the attached announcement and/or contact me for more details (alexis.duchesne@univ-lille.fr). Candidatures  through: https://emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/UMR8520-ALEDUC-001/Default.aspx

Please do not hesitate to share with your students or with colleagues.

Best regards,

Alexis Duchesne and Farzam Zoueshtiagh

PS: We expect to have fun within this project!
