Research Assistant/associate in Translational
6 months ago
A position exists for a Research Assistant/Associate to design, fabricate and validate implantable bioelectronic devices as part of a NIHR funded project to develop a mínimally invasive spinal cord stimulator system. Background to the Project Our ability to interface with the central nervous system is currently constrained by the absence of mínimally invasive tools that can provide adequate access to select nerve tracts. This post will explore a new solution to this problem: a shape-actuated bioelectronic implant that can be implanted percutaneously in a rolled state and then unrolled inside the body to cover a large area. The primary aim of the project will be to finalize a functional prototype in partnership with an external manufacturer. The realization of this tool will enable wider spread use of spinal cord stimulation for pain management.
