Would you like to use cutting-edge artificial intelligence to solve real-world physics and engineering problems that matter? This fully funded PhD studentship offers an exceptional opportunity to do exactly that, working at the forefront of AI-driven ultrasonic evaluation of materials.

Ultrasound plays a critical role in keeping our world safe and reliable. From inspecting aircraft components and pipelines to monitoring batteries in electric vehicles, ultrasonic measurements let us “see” inside m...

Halide perovskites are a fascinating class of materials with a wide range of applications in (spin)optoelectronics. Their outstanding optoelectronic properties are strongly influenced by coupling between excited electronic states and the wildly vibrating atoms in these “soft semiconductors”. This can lead to the trapping of charge carriers and excitons (bound electron-hole pairs), shifted and broadened spectral signatures, and – paradoxically – either constitute a desirable material property or ...

About the role:

The role will engage in translational research developing AI tools for rapid assessment of fetal heart anatomy and function from echocardiography images. It utilizes such tools to assess a type of advanced fetal heart intervention, fetal aortic valvuloplasty, where catheters are used to relieve flow obstruction in the fetal heart to avoid a progression to congenital heart malformation at birth. It will further develop a computational model for better patient selection.
