Cambridge, United Kingdom University of Cambridge Full time

Applications are invited for a Research Associate to join the VISIONLAB, which is co-located in the Department of Physics and the Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute at the University of Cambridge. You will drive forward a multidisciplinary project advancing our understanding of optical wearable technologies. In particular, you will be responsible for pioneering new spectroscopy technologies that can be applied in a wearable setting to provide accurate quantification of haemoglobin and other relevant biomarkers.

The VISIONLAB is seeking to appoint a highly motivated and curiousity-driven individual with a PhD in a topic related to biomedical optics. Experience in human multispectral imaging, creation of dynamic blood phantom circuits, Monte Carlo modelling, and computational image reconstruction are essential. Practical knowledge of translational research in clinical trials and preclinical research in animal models are desirable. You should be able to demonstrate a strong track record of scientific publication and presentation at international research meetings, commensurate with their research experience. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the laboratory, excellent communication and team working skills are essential. Key responsibilities will include: development of a prototype wearable approach suitable for use in a phantom and clinical setting; advanced computational modelling and simulation; collection and analysis of experimental data; and supervision of graduate and undergraduate students in the laboratory.

Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 2 years in the first instance.

The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
