Research Senior Clinical Fellow Precision Neurotechnology

Job overview

The ARIA Clinical Research Fellowship is a unique opportunity to work at the cutting edge of brain-computer interface (BCI) technology and cognitive neuroscience. Powered by a landmark £6.5 million research grant from the Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA), the role places you at the forefront of translating a new class of therapeutic BCI for brain network disorders. As the ARIA Fellow, you will be part of an inter-disciplinary team working on the Forest 1 device which leverages ultrasound’s unique tissue penetration properties to allow whole-brain high-resolution imaging and multi-target neuromodulation. The position comes with a fully funded PhD at Queen Mary University London, full clinical salary, and a generous research stipend. This is the perfect opportunity for a clinical neuroscience trainee with a strong research background and a drive to push the boundaries of neurotechnology.

Main duties of the job

The ARIA Senior Clinical Research Fellow will play an integral role in delivering the Forest 1 device study in a group of participants who have had a decompressive craniectomy. Embedded in the neurosurgical department at Queen’s Hospital, the fellow will lead on the recruitment of study participants and the delivery of experimental sessions which will include coordinating advanced neuroimaging (MRI and ultrasonography) and cognitive/psychiatric testing. Experimental sessions will be delivered across two sites in London. The role is suitable for a highly motivated clinical neuroscience resident with a strong research track record, analytical and organisational skills, and the ability to work across disciplines. Experience in neuroimaging, computational modelling, or brain stimulation is desirable
