The successful applicant will investigate and develop advanced signal processing and machine learning algorithms for prediction purposes. The ideal candidate will have received a PhD in Biomedical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Computer Science or a closely related discipline, and is expected to have significant experience of biomedical signal processing and machine learning techniques. Applicants are also expected to have a strong publication record as first author, ideally including publications in 1st quartile journals in relevant areas.
Appointment will be made as Senior Research Officer.
