We are currently seeking Undergraduate Researchers starting their 2nd or 3rd year of their B.S. degree to assist with projects quantifying the mechanics and structure of cardiovascular soft tissues and tissue analogs. Researchers will shadow lab members and attend lab meetings in Fall 2022 and begin on independent projects in Spring 2023. Interested candidates should email Dr. Witzenburg (witzenburg@wisc.edu) and attach a resume.
