We are seeking a full-time Senior Researcher to join Professor Christopher Proctor’s research group at the Department of Engineering Science, Institute of Biomedical Engineering in Headington.  The post is funded by the UKRI BioEMat project and is fixed-term for up to 18 months.

As Senior Researcher, you will design, fabricate, and validate implantable devices that monitor the activity of the nervous system, and deliver electrical stimulation along with chemicals/drugs with precise spatial and temporal control as part of a broader UKRI project to develop new technologies to advance our capacity to interface with the nervous system. These technologies will be applied primarily in animal models with an eye towards translation to clinical applications. This role will involve leading, devising, coordinating, and supervising research projects, including providing guidance to researchers and students, and winning further funding to underpin the research.
