Research Associate - Biomedical Engineering | Wissenschaftliche/r Mitarbeiter/in (m/w/d) - Biomedizinische Technik

Job Summary

This full-time, fixed-term Research Associate position in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Rostock focuses on cutting-edge research within the "DüDeMa" project, specifically developing advanced materials and 3D printing techniques for dental implants. Day-to-day responsibilities involve designing and characterizing ceramic feedstock, optimizing process parameters for 3D printing high-density ceramics, setting up experimental rigs for mechanical testing of implants, and rigorously documenting and publishing scientific findings. The successful candidate will also be expected to secure third-party funding and supervise student projects. Key qualifications include a strong scientific university degree (Master’s or equivalent) in Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science, or related fields. Practical experience in Lithographic Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM), ceramic slurry development, and rheological characterization is highly desirable. This role offers an opportunity to contribute significantly to interdisciplinary medical technology research in a supportive academic environment, requiring strong teamwork, independence, and a willingness to present results internationally.
