A Computational Biomechanics job involves using computer simulations, mathematical models, and engineering principles to analyze the mechanical behavior of biological systems. Professionals in this field work on applications such as medical implants, sports performance optimization, injury prevention, and tissue modeling. They often use software like finite element analysis (FEA) tools to study forces, stresses, and deformations in biological structures. This role typically requires expertise in biomechanics, programming, and data analysis and is common in industries such as healthcare, biomedical engineering, and research institutions.
Computational Biomechanics professionals are typically responsible for developing and implementing computer models to simulate biological systems, analyzing biomechanical data, and validating computational results with experimental or clinical data. They often collaborate closely with engineers, medical professionals, and researchers to design studies, interpret findings, and optimize medical devices or interventions. Daily tasks may include coding algorithms, running simulations, processing medical images, and presenting findings to project teams or stakeholders. This multidisciplinary role often requires adaptability and communication skills to translate complex scientific results into actionable insights for both technical and non-technical audiences.
To thrive in Computational Biomechanics, you need a strong background in biomechanics, mathematics, and computer science, often supported by an advanced degree in biomedical engineering or a related field. Proficiency with finite element analysis (FEA) software, programming languages like MATLAB or Python, and experience with medical imaging tools are commonly required. Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and collaboration with interdisciplinary teams make candidates stand out. These skills ensure accurate modeling, effective research outcomes, and successful collaboration across engineering and healthcare projects.

The Cardiovascular Biomechanics Computation Lab at Stanford University, led by Dr. Alison Marsden, focuses on computational modeling of the cardiovascular system to aid surgical planning, medical device design, and fundamental research in biomechanics. The lab develops the SimVascular open-source project, a leading tool for patient-specific modeling and blood flow simulation, and manages the Vascular Model Repository (VMR), which offers over 300 accessible SimVascular-compatible projects.
The lab seeks a Computational Engineering Associate to support VMR (https://vascularmodel.com) and SimVascular projects (https://simvascular.github.io). through data curation, database management, website maintenance, open-source software development-including bug reporting and documentation-and creating Python scripts for data processing in AI and machine learning applications. The role involves collaborating with Stanford libraries to ensure data integrity and integration of new datasets into the VMR, as well as maintaining comprehensive documentation for accessibility to researchers.
The ideal candidate will work closely with lab members and external collaborators, possessing programming experience (e.g., Python), excellent communication skills, a collaborative mindset, and project management capabilities.
Duties include:
Data Curation for VMR: Manage data repository activities, including data archiving, curation, and ensuring public access for various research projects, while facilitating dissemination to the scientific community.
Support for SimVascular: Assist with bug reporting, source code testing, and documentation, as well as providing user support and troubleshooting for the SimVascular community, ensuring effective dissemination of software releases.
Model Building: Utilize SimVascular and 3D Slicer to develop anatomical models from medical images, enhancing the research database and promoting model accessibility to researchers.
Project Management: Assist the PI with overseeing ongoing research projects and assist the senior software engineer with oversight of open-source projects, ensuring timely completion of scientific tasks and collaboration among team members, while supporting the dissemination of findings to the broader scientific community.
Lab Management: Assist with lab operations including compute resource allocation, equipment purchases, and onboarding new members to support scientific computing activities.
Workflow Development: Create custom Python scripts to facilitate machine learning, data curation, and patient-specific modeling processes, aiding in the dissemination of innovative methods and tools.
