Medical Device Development
A postdoctoral research position to work on a new medical device prototype is open in the College of Nursing at Washington State University Vancouver, Vancouver WA. This position is interdisciplinary in nature and will be expected to interact with experts from the following disciplines: nursing, electrical engineering, computer science, materials science, and mechanical engineering.
The project involves the use of physical sensors, flexible electronics, data acquisition, and a wireless read-out unit. The research will be focused on (a) investigating different physicals sensors and their performance for a specific application, (b) exploring packaging and integration of sensors into a framework, (c) analyzing wireless low-power options for seamless transfer of data, and (d) implementing flexible electronics for digital read-out. The postdoc will also work on predictive techniques using Artificial Intelligence (AI) (with the help of other experts) to improve the device performance or accuracy of results.
A background in electronics, electrical interfaces, data acquisition, wireless circuits, sensors, and a knowledge of device development is necessary. Experience with flexible printed circuit boards and sensor design is preferred. Familiarity with AI is highly desirable. In addition, knowledge in troubleshooting electronic circuits is expected. Most importantly, the candidate should be a self-starter and have strong enthusiasm to explore new research ideas on specific topics and show strong resilience during the different stages of device development.
Core responsibilities will include:
