We have an opening (as of 9 September 2026) for a PhD position on the topic of  fiber networks and their poro-elastic properties. Interested candidates with strong coding skills (Python, C++, HPC threading)  will be considered for a fully funded position starting as soon as possible, subject to funding.

PhD candidates with excellent academic preparation are welcome to apply.  I  welcome students with creativity  and a demonstrated research experience. Please submit your application through UBC online portal and send me your file reference number. Please do not email me with large cv and file attachments, please use the ubc application portal.  I try my best to respond, but can not promise to respond to all queries, given other demands on my time and attention. Where I notice a specific background match I will reach out to you. You can contact me with a brief description of why you want to work in my group and how that training will help your goals.
