Research engineer in mixed signal ASIC design for injectable neuroprosthetics
Universitat Pompeu Fabra In the context of a research project funded by an ERC Consolidator Grant, the Biomedical Electronics Research Group (BERG) of Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona is seeking expe... rienced candidates to carry out research on the design of integrated circuits intended to be imbedded within injectable implants.
We want to develop and demonstrate wireless networks of implants capable of stimulating the muscles and recording their activity. Potentially, among other fields of application, this technology will be used to restore motor functions in patients who suffer from paralysis. The implants will look like short pieces of flexible thread and will be injectable. These features will be possible because the power supply methods used so far in active implants (e.g. batteries and inductive coupling) will be replaced by an innovative power transfer method.
Now we are seeking for a research engineer to collaborate in the design of the integrated circuits that will be imbedded within those implants.
If interested, please apply by sending a single pdf with: 1- motivation letter, 2- your curriculum vitae and 3- the contact details of three references. The curriculum vitae must contain a very brief description of some of the ASIC designs you participated in and of your involvement in those designs. Please indicate the reference number eAXON-PD4 in the subject.
Please apply as soon as possible. Candidatures will be accepted until this announcement expires (~ October the 20th). The envisaged job starting date is December the 1st, 2018.
