experimental—and its applications in cardiovascular diseases and medical 
devices. The initial appointment is for one year, with the potential for renewal 
based on satisfactory performance. The successful candidate is expected to 
commit to a minimum of two years.

The Artificial Intelligence and Modeling Lab for Cardiovascular Diseases 
(AIMCardio Lab) focuses on fluid-structure interaction (both computational and 
experimental) and its applications in cardiovascular diseases and medical 
devices. We have established long-standing collaborations with leading U.S. 
hospitals (e.g., Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Boston Children’s 
Hospital, UMass Chan Medical School, Children’s Hospital of Atlanta, Geisinger 
Medical Center) and prominent medical device companies (e.g., Abbott, Edwards 
Lifesciences, Boston Scientific, Medtronic). You can find more information about 
our latest research here: AIMCardioLab.wpi.edu.

Required Qualifications

and Aerospace), applied mathematics, or related fields.
** Experience with experimental flow visualization techniques, such as Particle 
Image Velocimetry (PIV), OR
** Experience with fluid-structure interaction simulations or finite element 
modeling in biological systems, OR
** Experience with data-driven flow modeling techniques, including physics-
informed neural networks or reduced-order modeling

Preferred Qualifications
* Conduct various team-oriented and independent investigations in planning, 
developing, and implementing original experimental procedures within the overall
