Title:
Machine learning based biomarkers for Parkinson’s disease
Research area and project description:
Applicants are invited for a PhD position within biomedical machine learning.
The PhD-project is a part of a research collaboration between Department of Clinical Medicine and Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Aarhus University (AU). The position is available from 01 August 2024.
The aim of the PhD project is to advance machine learning methods to identify pathology specific patterns in longitudinal physiological time series. The focus is specifically on signals from a minimally obtrusive sleep monitoring device, which can monitor sleep in home-environment without assistance from healthcare professionals. This is an important tool in both basic research of the disease progression, for stratification of sub-types of the disease, and potentially in future early diagnosing and monitoring of disease progression.
The PhD is a technical-science project but will be conducted in a close collaboration between health science researchers at Department of Clinical Medicine, AU / Department of Nuclear Medicine & PET centre, Aarhus University Hospital; and biomedical engineering researchers from the Bioelectrical Instrumentation and Signal Processing group / Neuro-Technology Lab at Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, AU.
Project description. For technical reasons, you must upload a project description. Please simply copy the project description above and upload it as a PDF in the application.
