The Neural Control of Movement, Rehabilitation Engineering, and Mobile Health Systems Laboratories in the Department of Health Sciences and Technology (D-HEST) of ETH Zurich have an opening for a fully funded
PhD position in Mobile Rehabilitation Technology
The goal of this collaborative project
will be to develop mobile rehabilitation technology for translation
into clinical and home settings. The applicant will work on medical
devices that interface with smartphones to communicate remotely with a
clinician or experimenter. The work will make an important contribution
to providing technology access and improving rehabilitation outcomes for
neurological patients with movement disorders.
The host laboratories have a broad range of expertise in hardware and software development in the context of medical applications, in fundamental movement neuroscience research and in clinical trials.
Employment is expected to begin in the second half of 2015 and international applicants are welcome.

A successful applicant
will have, or is expected to soon receive a Master’s degree in a
technical discipline (e.g. Engineering/Applied Mathematics, Computer
Science, Physics, or equivalent). Skills, both in software (e.g.
microcontroller/mobile app programming, signal processing and data
analysis in MATLAB or similar high-level language) and hardware (e.g.
CAD, circuit and PCB design) are required. Proficiency in English and
the ability to communicate with collaborators across a range of
disciplines is also necessary. A demonstrated interest in the
application of technology in the field of neurorehabilitation will be
viewed favorably. Above all, candidates should be enthusiastic with a
strong willingness to learn new skills.
For further information please contact Prof. Nicole Wenderoth at nicole.wenderoth@hest.ethz.
We are looking forward
to receive your online application by May 1, 2015. It should include a
CV (including publication list), a statement of interest and the names
and email addresses of two potential referees. Please send it to: ETH
Zurich, Ms. Nadja Lang, Human Resources, CH-8092 Zurich.
