The post-doc will work within the vascular biophysics group at the Dept of Biomedical Engineering and Physics at the Academic Medical Center http://www.amc.nl/index.cfm?sid=142. He or she will study the remodelling of collagen and other matrix proteins by vascular smooth muscle cells, using a variety of experimental approaches ranging from gel compaction models to in vitro and in vivo interventions on vascular pressure and flow.
