Bremen, Germany.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">Salary is according
to the German Federal pay scale, TV-L 13, full position.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">Job Description:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">The work in this
position will comprise 3D geometric algorithms and virtual
reality in the context of medical simulation. The particular
application is the training of surgeons for procedures
involving the replacement of hip joints. The successful
candidate will collaborate with other German partners
providing 3D models, force-feedback, and game software
platforms. The job of the successful candidate is to work on
geometric algorithms for penetration computations and the
simulation of milling during the procedure. At the end of
the project, after two years, the system should enable
surgery students to experience a hip joint procedure both
visually and haptically in a virtual reality setup. This
will greatly facilitate the training of surgeons and help
them make fewer mistakes when beginning to practice.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

provides a vibrant research environment where a broad range
of activities related to 3D graphics algorithms and virtual
reality are being pursued. The successful candidate will be
working with a dynamic, friendly, and helpful team of
computer graphics researchers. Our research group is part of
the school of computer science at University of Bremen. Our
university is a mid-sized university with about 20,000
students, a lot of them from abroad, offering a broad range
of fringe benefits such as sports facilities, cultural
activities, and daycare.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
