The Laboratory of Biomedical Optics conducts research on development of new, unique non-invasive methods of cerebral blood flow assessment based on a time-resolved diffuse reflectance measurement technique with the detection of the optical signal at multiple wavelengths. The spectral time-resolved optical method, based on the measurements of the distribution of time of flight of photons, enables the estimation of the blood supply of the cerebral cortex, taking into account information from the extra- and intracerebral layers of the head.
The candidate will be dealing with new methods for cerebral blood flow assessment to improve the diagnosis of patients in an acute stage of ischemic changes in the brain. The candidate will be working on all aspects of a task, including mathematical modelling, hardware development and data analysis.
A candidate for an Assistant position should meet the following requirements:
- A. Education:
Master of Science in biomedical engineering, physics, or other exact science.
- B.Scientific / professional achievements:
