Health Technology Assessment (HTA), as you may know, is a multi-disciplinary field of policy analysis that examines the medical, economic, social and ethical implications of the incremental value, diffusion and use of a medical technology in healthcare. This program will be very helpful for the biomedical engineers also as it would help them to know about the scientific tools and techniques for technology assessment, legal and regulatory dimensions in use and uptake of health technologies, how to integrate medical technologies in healthcare institutions apart from understanding and assessing clinical epidemiology questions through systematic reviews and critical appraisal of clinical trials.
Experienced international and national faculty have agreed to participate and share their expertise during this week long international fellowship program. People from organizations like WHO Country Office for India, NHSRC, QCI are also coming for this fellowship program.
BME Lab, Bern University of Applied Sciences (BFH), Biel/Bienne, Switzerland
There are currently several open positions for highly motivated and skilled engineers at the BME Lab of BFH-TI in Switzerland.
Job 1 (PhD student): While enrolled at EPFL as a PhD student, you will work on a cutting-edge research project financed by nano-tera.ch (SNF). The goal is to design, build, and optimize demonstrators of a hand and arm prosthesis that allows an amputee to feel touch. To facilitate this, our partners, e.g., at CSEM and EPFL, will embed miniature body sensors in a flexible material to create an artificial skin for tactile prosthetic applications. Your profile: We are looking for an engineer with a master’s degree who will enroll into the doctoral program of EPFL. Further information is available online (http://phd.epfl.ch/page-19784-en.html). Applicants shall be competent in the following areas: electronics, signal processing, control engineering, and related fields.
The University of Iowa’s Virtual Soldier Research (VSR) program,
within the Center for Computer-Aided Design (CCAD), is seeking PhD
candidates in human modeling and simulation area. VSR is a world
renowned multi-disciplinary team, with expertise spanning computer
science, optimization, biomechanics, computational mechanics,
physiology, 3D modeling, and others. VSR has developed a human
simulation environment which continues to grow from cutting edge
research and from user-driven product development. This PhD project
will deal with the development of mathematical models to predict
natural human motions for various tasks. We seek candidates who are
interested in modeling, simulation, and control of large multi-body
dynamic systems.
The PhD student position concerns own research and education within the area of biomedical signal processing. This area is focused on the development of mathematical models and algorithms for the analysis of biomedical signals. The present research project deals with novel methods for compression and characterization of signals reflecting local electrical activity in the brain. Of particular interest is to analyze the propagation, causality, and dynamics of such signals. The research is pursued in collaboration with the Neuronano Research Center at Lund University, where one postdoctor is active and will co-supervise the PhD student.
