Your Challenges
Accident and emergency informatics is a novel and trans-disciplinary field of research that we have established at PLRI. In the DiRect project, we are transforming so far paper-based information sheets provided by car manufacturers into a digital and three-dimensional application installed on portable devices by the rescue teams. Besides the interactive 3D visualization, we aim at (i) navigation (where to cut for emergency release), (ii) automatic vehicle identification (using the eCall system, QR codes, photographs, or from the license plate), (iii) vehicle deformation estimation (based on crash data from the car’s CAN bus), (iv) personalized injury estimation of vehicle occupants (depending on their seat position and mechanical crash parameters), (v) establishing a comprehensive accident registry, and (vi) integration towards automatic eCall generation with ISAN integration.

Your Profile
We are seeking outstanding candidates that have:

• completed, or are in the process of completing either a Master’s degree or a Ph.D. in (mechanical) engineering or computer science,

Sensor-based Patient-generated Data Science

The Institute
PLRI is a joint institute of TU Braunschweig and Hannover Medical School, and one of the largest university-based centers for medical informatics in Germany.

Depending on your qualification and fulfillment of personal requirements, the remuneration is based on the salary level TV-L E13. International applicants will need to complete a visa process before hiring can take place. The position is based at PLRI Campus Braunschweig. The workplace is basically part-time suitable but should be 100 percent occupied.

Your Challenges
The medical Internet of Things facilitates unobtrusive health monitoring of all aspects of people’s life. Wearable sensors enable connecting directly to the body in order to continuously record movements or measure vital signs. Environmental sensors can capture people’s behavior changes, leading to the potential detection of loss of functions. The same applies to sensor technology in vehicles. The successful applicant will develop systems and algorithms that enable the sensor data collected in the patient’s living environment as a source of information for the healthcare system. Such sensors include photography, video, and acoustics. Particular challenges arise here in the task-specific selection of sensors, the aggregation, and fusion of the raw sensor data to a patient-specific situation picture, and the mapping of this situation picture to medical relevant information that can be further processed for data analysis and exchange. The application of the novel machine learning approaches (e.g., deep learning) to massive health data with high variety may show superior performance towards robust and patient-centered event prediction. The test bed of research is accident and emergency informatics, a novel and trans-disciplinary research field that we have established at PLRI.

Your Profile
We are seeking outstanding candidates that have:

• completed, or are in the process of completing either a Master’s degree or a Ph.D. in computer science, medical informatics, or comparable courses of study,
• experience in combining and analyzing sensor data,
• programming skills in mainstream data science programming languages such as Python, R and experience in software development,
• experience in research and outstanding published works in medical data science,
• familiarity with medical terminologies and semantic interoperability,
• excellent oral and writing skills in English (German language skills are advantageous),
• willingness to work closely with the interdisciplinary project team, and
• self-initiative and result-oriented working approach.

Application Process

Please prepare your application documents in German or English as a combined PDF document consisting of

Your Challenges
Considering the medical Internet of Things, we need automatic communication between alarming systems such as smart cars and smart homes, responding systems such as police or fire rescue teams, and curing systems such as emergency rooms in hospitals. ISAN is a token that allows secure and private communication without any human operator in the loop. Together with the rescue unit of the City of Braunschweig, we are prototyping such a system. Research and development fields also cover the development of terminology that – in close cooperation with the World Health Organization (WHO), we integrate into ICD 11.

Project Description:
Deep Learning is a machine learning field that became essential to the field of image processing in the last years. High performance algorithms can be trained on large data sets. However, for rare conditions with a limited number of training cases, training CNNs remains a challenge. The candidate will work on a training pipeline that can be applied to various data sets and tasks. The Research Campus Mannheim Molecular Interventional Environment (M²OLIE) develops innovative molecular imaging technologies by fusion of several imaging modalities (CT, MRI, PET) to enable image-guided, high-precision interventions using high-end CT and robotic systems. The PhD candidate will perform research in deep learning based image segmentation within the Research campus and beyond. The project can be executed in German or English.

Working Environment:
Our group is composed of more than thirty scientists from physics, electrical engineering, medicine and computer science and is working in close co-operation with the local medical departments. We are developing new imaging techniques and data analysis approaches and translate them with our clinical partners into daily practice. Our research team specializes in exploration of Deep Learning in interventional imaging. Ongoing collaborations with other researchers involve the Central Institute of Mental Health (ZI, Mannheim), the German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ, Heidelberg), and across Europe with multiple opportunities to visit leading international laboratories and to attend taught schools.
