London, Greater London, United Kingdom University College London (UCL) Full time

The Departments of Medical Physics & Biomedical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at UCL are inviting applications for studentships in the area of advanced x-ray imaging.

These studentships are offered as part of the Advanced X-Ray Imaging Group (AXIm, activities, and in particular in association with Professor SandroOlivo's Royal Academy of Engineering Chair in Emerging Technologies ().

While x-rays are considered an established and possibly "old" technology, AXIm are transforming them by relying on different physical principles and creating images based on changes in x-ray phase and on the microradian angular deviations affecting most x-rays exiting from an object, which are completely undetected by conventional systems.

The appointed students will join an existing cohort of 10 PhD students working on the development of new imaging technology at the interface between Industry and Academia, and with close end-user involvement.

The successful candidates will have full access to world-leading labs, work at the cutting-edge of imaging, fabrication and algorithmic methods, spend time in industry, and participate in experiments at high-end facilities (e.g. synchrotrons).

This will enable the development of translational and interdisciplinary skills, leading to high employability by Academia, scientific institutions and Industry.

The involved academic group has an internationally leading profile and an exceptional publication record.

This project will provide opportunities for high-profile publications and conference presentations, and provide a wide range of opportunities for interdisciplinary collaborations.

The students will be trained to use and extend our modelling software in order to simulate new imaging systems and ultimately design and build them, and most importantly use them to detect previously invisible features in biomedical and industrial samples, which will also entail developing novel image analysis and reconstruction approaches.

Funding is available to home students only (See here for Fee Status information). The anticipated start date is this academic year (2023/24).

creative and critical thinking; excellent writing and oral communication skills; Make a formal application to UCL for the Research Degree Medical Physics and enter Advanced X-Ray Imaging for Healthcare and Industry under 'Name of Award 1'.
