The University of Luxembourg (UL) invites applications for four Marie-Curie PhD Fellows (Doctoral Candidate) positions (m/f) as part of the Rapid Biomechanics and Simulation for Personalised Clinical Design (RAINBOW) MCSA European Training Network. RAINBOW is funded under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
4 Marie-Curie PhD Fellows
- Ref: R-AGR-3325-10-C (RAINBOW)
- Initial 14 months fixed-term contract, renewable for up to 36 months (depending on thesis progress evaluation)
- Starting date: 1 September 2018 or as soon as possible thereafter
- Employee and student status (36 months programme)
You will be working as part of the Rapid Biomechanics Simulation for Personalized Clinical Design (RAINBOW) MSCA European Training Network, awarded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. This network consists of 5 universities, 1 hospital, 8 industrial partners, and will educate a total of 15 PhD students through common dedicated training activities. The RAINBOW research objective is to realize the full potential of computational medicine and ICT to arrive at patient-specific simulation models that are rapidly set for a particular patient, are easy-to-use by clinical experts and do not require assistance from a technical team. Candidates will be exposed to clinical practice and get close to patients and clinical experts while working both with theory and creating software, design tools, to be used by clinical experts.
Your Profile
- Master's degree in Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, Computer Science or a related subject
- Good English language skill
- Willingness to work in an inter-cultural and international environment.
- Willingness to travel for extended visits and research stays
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team
- Curiosity and self-motivation
You must be an “early stage researcher” (i.e. in the first 4 years of his/her research career and not have a doctoral degree) and you must not have resided in Luxembourg for more than 12 months in the three years immediately before the recruitment.
