PhD Candidate for Hardware Development of an Implant Testbed
(Ref-No. 2022-0165)
MRI scanning of patients with implants poses a potential safety hazard and even though international standards exist to address these risks, improvements are needed. This project is part of an international consortium to update and improve current standards related to implant safety in MRI. The aim of the project is to develop reference parallel transmit (pTx) hardware for radiofrequency (RF) testing of implants at a frequency equivalent of 3 Tesla MRI.The successful applicant will be involved in:
- development and construction of a reference design for a multi-channel transmit body array,
- design and construction of the RF transmission chain for the pTx system (including modulators and amplifiers),
- development of a streamlined user interface for controlling the measurement system.
Your profile:
Successful candidates will become members of a multidisciplinary international team and should:- hold a graduate degree (Master’s / Diplom) in physics, engineering, or a related scientific or technical field,
- possess keen interest in scientific research and be able to work independently,
- have experience in electromagnetic theory or electric circuit design,
- have experience in at least one programming language (preferred: C/C++, Matlab, Python)
- have good oral and written communication skills in both German (ideal) and English (mandatory).
We offer:
- Interesting, versatile workplace
- International, attractive working environment
