London, Greater London, United Kingdom Queen Mary University of London Full time

About the Role

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate with experience in machine and deep learning to work on a research project funded by the Precision Health, Cardiovascular Devices and Trials Theme, part of a recent NIHR Biomedical Research Centre Award to Barts Health NHS Trust.

The research will involve using the cardiovascular digital twin concept to digitally model three disease states: acute coronary syndromes, valvular heart disease and hypertension. These models will be created by inputting data from available existing and novel wearables, sensing technologies, apps and large data registries. Using this data, digital models will be created to provide personalised patient treatment plans supporting their disease management, predicting disease states/trends and enabling device choice/design by predicting the patient's response.

The role is funded for 3 years in the first instance.

About You

The ideal candidate will have a PhD in a numerate field with expertise in machine and deep learning methods, supported by high quality publications. Experience applying such methods to healthcare data is an advantage.

Appointments at grade 4 through to grade 5 and offers will be made based on level of experience in relation to the duties and expectations of the role and person specification, as outlined in the Job Profile.

About the Institute

The Digital Environment Research Institute (DERI) is Queen Mary's first University Research Institute, created as part of the university's ambitious Strategy 2030. University Research Institutes represent a paradigm shift as they are outside the standard Queen Mary faculty structure and collaborate across the university to advance multi-disciplinary research and innovation.

DERI is dedicated to ground-breaking research in digital and data science, including AI. DERI offers an outstanding research environment including a dedicated physical space along with recently purchased high performance computing infrastructure to enable scientific breakthroughs. Further, DERI leads the university's participation in The Alan Turing Institute, the UK national institute for data science and AI. By tackling grand challenges, DERI will have impact in academia, government, industry and more broadly, society.

About Queen Mary

At Queen Mary University of London, we believe that a diversity of ideas helps us achieve the previously unthinkable.
