Lecturer or Senior Lecturer in Computational Biomedical Engineering (Teaching & Research)

About the Role

The School of Engineering & Materials Science (SEMS) is home to the Centre for Bioengineering. Queen Mary has a long track record of outstanding bioengineering and biomaterials research and has just been awarded an EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Next Generation Organ-on-a-Chip Technologies. Centre staff apply their expertise to a wide range of biomedical research problems and applications with core strengths in biomechanics, mechanobiology, biomaterials, predictive in vitro models, sensing, med tech, and AI for healthcare. Staff also support our delivery of biomedical engineering and mechanical engineering undergraduate and postgraduate programmes of study. In REF2021, SEMS was ranked 7th overall and 2nd for the quality of our research outputs.

We are looking for world-leading researchers in a computational biomedical engineering area able to complement and expand our biomedical engineering research and teaching, such as Computational Modelling of Biological Systems, AI and Machine Learning in Healthcare, Medical Digital Twins, Biomechanics and Computational Physiology, Biomedical Signal Processing, Medical Imaging and Analysis, Systems and Engineering Biology, and Digital Health. We are particularly interested in staff whose research aligns with artificial intelligence approaches.

About You

Applicants should have a proven track record of research achievement demonstrated through refereed journal publications, and at a minimum outstanding potential for research income generation, with a proven track record expected for a role at senior lecturer level.

A commitment to high-quality student education is also essential, to develop, support and deliver on campus our taught programmes, particularly in the biomedical engineering and AI areas.

We particularly welcome applications from people who identify as women, Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic groups as these groups are underrepresented at this level at Queen Mary.

About the School/Department/Institute/Project

This post is within the School of Engineering and Materials Science, a large School with over 100 academics. There are around 1700 undergraduate and taught postgraduate students and over 150 PhD students within our London operation, supported by an administrative and technical staff of around 45.
