• Demonstrate a strong interest in topics related to women's health and physiology, such as hormonal and circadian rhythms, sleep, and stress, and the application of technology to improve health outcomes.
• Possess strong interest and aptitude in data analysis, algorithm development, and interpreting time-series data.
• Solid mathematical background in machine learning. Experience with application of artificial intelligence in the context of health data analysis would be advantageous.
• Familiarity with relevant programming languages (e.g., Python, MATLAB) and data handling techniques is highly desirable.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to contribute to cutting-edge research.
• Excellent written and oral communication skills in English.
• Be team-oriented and possess strong interpersonal skills to collaborate effectively with a multidisciplinary team and academic and industrial partners.
  
  

Your responsibilities:

• Conducting cutting-edge research into the application of wearable sensors for monitoring and understanding various aspects of women's health.
• Designing and implementing algorithms for the personalised analysis of data collected from wearables.
• Analysing large datasets of physiological data to identify patterns and insights relevant to women's health.
• Collaborating with healthcare professionals and other stakeholders to ensure the clinical relevance and usability of developed solutions.
• Contributing to the dissemination of research findings through publications and presentations.
• Staying up-to-date with the latest advancements in wearable technology, machine learning and women's health research.
  
  

We offer:

• The opportunity to be at the forefront of innovation and research in women's health, AI and wearable technology.
• A stimulating and collaborative working environment within a dynamic and growing team.
• An interdisciplinary and innovative research environment.
• Ample opportunities for academic and personal development.
• Potential for career planning and networking opportunities through conferences and other events.
