Job Details
In the current project we will develop, test and optimise signal analysis methods to tackle this time-varying and signal dependent behaviour of blood flow control. The methods will be applied to data collected in previous research studies. The aims are to improve understanding of the physiological control system and identify markers of function/impairment that can be used in clinical practice.
Successful candidates will have a strong background in signal processing, and previous experience with biomedical applications will be advantageous. The project will be carried out in collaboration with partners at Southampton General Hospital and the Universities of Leicester and Oxford.
If you wish to discuss any details of the project informally, please contact Prof. David Simpson, Human Sciences Research Group, Email: ds@isvr.soton.ac.uk, Tel: +44 (0) 2380 59 3221.
