PhD studentship in Electrical Impedance Tomography

An exciting research opportunity is available for a highly qualified
graduate in engineering, mathematics or physics for further studies
leading to the award of the PhD degree. The successful applicant will
undertake work on an EPSRC funded project dealing with the development
of a novel Electrical Impedance Tomography bio-imaging system for
non-invasive monitoring of neonate lung function in Intensive Care
Units. The proposed system will provide a non-invasive measure of lung
maturity and development, oxygen requirements and lung function,
suitable for use in small, unsedated infants. This tool will be
routinely used to define the nature and severity of persisting lung
disease, and to identify risk factors for developing chronic lung
problems.



PhD studentship (Ref: MU/EIT): Wearable monitoring devices. This
project will involve the development of a wearable monitoring device
that allows continuous or intermittent monitoring of physiologic
signals which is crucial for the advancement of both the diagnosis as
well as treatment of neonate respiratory function. The research will
involve the investigation of built in sensors to measure the boundary
profile to model the boundary shape as well as novel techniques to
ensure electrode contact integrity during routine physiotherapy. This
work programme is particularly suited to applicants with a background
in Engineering Design or Medical Physics.

The studentship is open to UK, European and overseas applicants.

To apply, please email a covering letter stating reference MU/EIT,
your expertise, experience and research interests, a copy of your CV,
and the names and contact details of at least two referees to:

Professor Richard Bayford (e-mail: r.bayford@mdx.ac.uk) or Dr Andrew Tizzard
(email: a.tizzard@mdx.ac.uk).

The closing date for applications is the 16 November 2007.
