Join the Fight Against Traumatic Brain Injury: Research Assistant Opportunity Are you a passionate computer, electrical, biomedical engineer or a professional with a similar technical background seeking to make a real difference? Do you have expertise in computing, signal processing, and data analysis? This is your chance to join a multidisciplinary team dedicated to ground-breaking research in brain monitoring for patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Why TBI Research Matters TBI is one of the leading causes of death among young adults, with survivors often facing severe disabilities, diminished quality of life, and significant societal costs. It is estimated that approximately 69 million individuals worldwide sustain a traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year. Despite advances in critical care, outcomes for TBI patients have remained stagnant for decades. At the Brain Physics Laboratory, part of the Division of Neurosurgery in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences at the University of Cambridge, we're pushing the boundaries of TBI research. Our mission is to develop innovative, data-driven methodologies and technologies that not only enhance our understanding of TBI but also lead to computer-guided, individualised, therapies for improved patient outcomes.
