Description du poste

Research & development - Gent Zwijnaarde | More than two weeks ago

What you will do

As part of the highly prestigious ERC Starting Grant URENIMOD (Ultrasound for Remote Neuroimaging and Modulation), a postdoc position is available at Ghent University from January 2025. The project aims to develop a minimally to non-invasive treatment for focal epilepsy with ultrasound neurorecording, modulation, and deep reinforcement learning closed-loop control. The technology will be developed through detailed computer simulations and preclinical experiments. The postdoctoral candidate will be part of a multidisciplinary team working towards this objective at the WAVES and 4Brain research groups.

Research group

The UGent-WAVES research group is the expertise center of the Department of Information Technology of Ghent University – imec in Belgium for the interaction of electromagnetic and ultrasonic waves with the human body. UGent-WAVES has a research track in computational neuroscience, performing numerical simulations to optimize neuromodulation treatments.

The UGent-4Brain group has extensive expertise on neuromodulation in patients with epilepsy. Preclinical research at UGent-4Brain aims at finding more effective neuromodulation therapies with less side effects. Within the 4Brain group, translational neuroscientific research is performed to unravel the pathophysiology of neurological disorders and to develop novel therapies.

Ghent University is a world of its own. Employing more than 15.000 people, it is actively involved in education and research, management and administration, as well as technical and social service provision on a daily basis. It is one of the largest, most exciting employers in the area and offers great career opportunities. With its 11 faculties and more than 85 departments offering state-of-the-art study programmes grounded in research in a wide range of academic fields, Ghent University is a logical choice for its staff and students.

Who you are

We are looking for an enthusiastic candidate to perform research on the development of the computational framework, on in silico optimization of the envisioned closed-loop ultrasound treatment for epilepsy, and on preclinical experimental validation. You will co-supervise Ph.D. and master students within the context of the ERC-funded URENIMOD project.

Profile requirements:
  • You hold a doctoral degree in biomedical, electrical, physics engineering, or a related field.
  • Scientific expertise in neural engineering as evidenced by an excellent publication track record.
  • Experience with supervising master and/or PhD students.
Offer:
  • We offer a pleasant work climate within a dynamic team.
  • We offer a full-time position as a postdoctoral fellow on the ERC-funded project URENIMOD for a period of 3 years, with possibility of extension up to 5 years.
  • Your contract will start on January 1st 2025 at the earliest.
  • All Ghent University staff members enjoy a number of benefits, such as a wide range of training and education opportunities, 36 days of holiday leave (on an annual basis for a full-time job) supplemented by annual fixed bridge days, a bicycle allowance and eco vouchers…
