Open Opportunities

PhD student (Electrical Engineering) wanted: Non-invasive 3D imaging of the head of newborns with near-infrared light University of Zurich Biomedical Optics Laboratory We will build an imager based on near-infrared optical tomography (NIROT) that is able to non-invasively image brain oxygenation in preterm and term neonates. Wanted: Ph.D. student: an electrical engineer/physicist with a Masters Degree and profound knowledge in hardware (PCB design, FPGA, optical components) and software (C, C++, Matlab, VHDL) engineering. Biomedical Engineering PhD Placement

Characterization of Membranes for Microfluidic Biomarker Monitoring University of Zurich Biomedical Optics Laboratory Join our research on developing a non-invasive microfluidic device for continuous biomarker monitoring in preterm infants to eliminate the need for blood sampling. This project focuses on optimizing a probe's membrane permeability through in vitro diffusion experiments to improve microdialysis technique and neonatal healthcare.
