Closing Date: 12 noon 6th Jul 2026
Post Summary
The Medical Circuits and Systems Laboratory (MediCAS-Lab) at Trinity College Dublin are seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to explore and develop a wearable solution to monitor patients receiving treatment in a controlled environment.
This position is part of the LOTUS Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund (DTIF) lead by Luminate Medical Ltd. And the position will at Trinity College Dublin is dedicated to developing a cloud-based data transfer solutions for a wearable sensor system that facilitates treatment of patients in a controlled clinical environment. The project will achieve this through exploring supporting verification and design freeze of the sensor (WP2), and design iteration of the cloud solution to transfer and process the data (WP4),supporting documentation to obtain approval for the clinical trial (WP7), submission of data to the FDA (WP8), as well as supporting the market and regulatory perspective (WP9).
The specific objectives are:
(a) Support verification and design freeze of the sensor (WP2), and
(b) design iteration of the cloud solution to transfer and process the data (WP4),
(c) supporting documentation to obtain approval for the clinical trial (WP7),
(d) submission of data to the FDA (WP8), as well as
(e) supporting the market and regulatory perspective (WP9),
This project is supported by the DTIF Lotus project led by Luminate Medical Ltd. and managed by Enterprise Ireland.
Qualifications
The ideal candidate should hold an honours undergraduate degree and a post-graduate degree (ideally a PhD, but at least a M.Sc.) in a relevant discipline (e.g. electronics or mechanical engineering, or biomedical engineering). There is no one 'specific' discipline that fits this project. Ideally an engineer or physicist. We are looking for someone that is motivated, intrigued by scientific discovery, diligent and pays attention - taking pride in their work; and overall, a good team player. This is the primary criteria.
