Research Assistant in Translational Hip Mechanics
Do you have a strong technical background in programming with an interest in medical device development? Would you like to work across a multidisciplinary research institute and a medical device company to address a device verification challenge? We are looking for a proactive individual to join our team of researchers at the Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering, conducting applied, industrially embedded research, aimed at the verification of a sensor-based medical device. This role is part of a Proof-of-Concept project funded through the EPSRC Place Based Impact Acceleration Account: Innovating Medical Technologies Across the Yorkshire Region. This account is based on the medical technologies (MedTech) cluster in the Yorkshire region and supports the translation of university research into new clinical products and services. It is one of ten PBIAAs awarded in the first round of the scheme and is led by the Universities of Leeds and Sheffield. This Proof-of-Concept project will develop a computational modelling platform aimed at the verification of a new hip motion tracking device under development at Eventum Orthopaedics Ltd. You will have a strong background in programming and applied computational model development and have a proactive approach to working across an academic research space and a commercial product development environment. We encourage an environment of collaboration, trust and wellbeing, which values difference of ideas and embraces diversity. We are open to discussing flexible working arrangements.
