[Kaare Mikkelsen]

(apologies for cross-posting)

To whom it may concern:

We are seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Research Assistant to join the
Institute of Biomedical Engineering, in the Department of Engineering
Science (Headington). The post is funded by the National Institute of
Health Research (NIHR) and is initially fixed-term for 2 years, with the
possibility of extension.

As part of a team developing novel technology and algorithms for monitoring
brain activity, sleep and circadian patterns of patients with RBD and
Parkinson’s in home settings, you will be responsible for designing a
system for a user-friendly behind the ear sleep sensor with integrated
analytics for long-term monitoring of electrical biomarkers, sleep and
circadian rhythms at home. This work is undertaken as part of a
collaboration with the neurology Department of the Oxford University
Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

You will have a PhD (or near completion) in a relevant computer science,
engineering, maths or technology subject and will possess expertise in
neuroscience, information engineering, signal processing, or a cognate
discipline. You will have experience of working in a highly
interdisciplinary team.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Professor Maarten De Vos (
maarten.devos at eng.ox.ac.uk).

You will be required to upload a covering letter/supporting statement,
including a brief statement of research interests (describing how past
experience and future plans fit with the advertised position), CV and the
details of two referees as part of your online application.

Only applications received online before 12.00 noon on 16 August 2017 can
be considered. The Department holds an Athena Swan Bronze award,
highlighting its commitment to promoting women in Science, Engineering and
Technology.
