PhD Studentship in Hernia Repair
Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates for PhD studentships in hernia repair based at the Network of Excellence for Functional biomaterials (www.nfb.ie) at the National University of Ireland, Galway and at the premises of industrial and/or academic collaborators. The successful candidates will develop a functionalised collagen-based scaffold for hernia repair. This project is funded by the European Union Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) under grant agreement number 263289 (Green Nano-Mesh).

Two 3-Year Fully Funded PhD Fellowships in Medical Device Design and Development for the treatment of Lung Cancer
Applications are invited for two 3-Year fully funded PhD fellowships in medical device design and development, commencing in February 2012. The positions are within the Biomechanics Research Centre (BMEC), linked to the National Centre for Biomedical Engineering Science (NCBES) and are funded through the European Commission Seventh Framework Programme (FP7). The aim of the project is to design and develop a novel stent for the treatment of lung cancer and will combine stent technologies with the field of tissue engineering. In collaboration with other project partners across Europe, NUI Galway’s role in the project is focused on stent system analysis, design and prototype development. Both PhD students will work in collaboration on critically important and complementary aspects of the new stent system design and development. The projects will be supervised by Professor Peter McHugh and Dr. Mark Bruzzi. Closing date for receipt of applications is the 16th of January 2012.
