Co-op: Computational Fluid Dynamics
Vacancy expired!
Job Description
This is for a 6-month full-time co-op from January to June 2021.
Digital Quantitative Medicine (DQM) is responsible for creating and applying an integrated knowledge environment that enables assembly, integration, selection, advanced analysis and modeling, and simulation of human neuroscience data and information in support of drug discovery and medical therapeutics in the disease areas of neurology and neurocognition. Within DQM, the Modeling and Simulation team focuses on identifying, building, and creating cutting-edge computational tools and content that supports modeling, simulation, and data exploration including software and hardware related to extended realities (virtual, augmented, and mixed realities).
You will be part of a team doing mechanistic modeling in biological systems focusing on different areas, from fluid dynamics and transport, to biomechanics. You will help with the definition of modeling approaches that can capture the relevant Biology under study and, you will run, characterize, and validate these models using experimental data.
