Postdoctoral studies in Ubiquitous and Mobile computing

At
Department of Medicine, Solna
Unit for Computational Medicine

Description of the research project/area of research
Medical informatics is one of the active research areas within the unit. Based on Agile software development methodology we have developed T-MedFusion (Translational Medicine Informatics Fusion system) a solution for harmonizing and integrating federated databases created at Karolinska university hospital and Karolinska Institutet. We are also developingICTtools targeting the citizen as well as decision support systems for health professionals. We are now looking for a postdoctoral scientist, who would like to lead the development of the design and implementation of user applications. Interfaces via web / smartphones / sensors / wireless technologies implementing different algorithms communicating with databases. Users include citizens, patients, health professionals and biomedical and clinical researchers.

The positions are located at the Unit for Computational Medicine (www.compmed.se), at the Department of Medicine, Solna, Karolinska Institutet. The Unit is physically located at the Center for Molecular Medicine (CMM) (www.cmm.ki.se) that offers an outstanding research environment in the field of complex disease. We provide an exiting environment and unique team with expertise and ongoing project involving theory, computation and biological experimental analysis.

Qualifications of the applicant
Applications are invited from highly talented and enthusiastic researchers with a PhD degree in Computer Science/Engineering or a foreign qualification deemed equivalent to a doctorate. Experience from design is a merit.The postdoc researcher has an important role in software development and practical innovative solutions targeting citizens, and/or health care professionals. You have good understanding of medical informatics and can define user’s requirements and create customized solutions per project. You will work with team to understand and analysis elements of existing systems and databases, but also with the development of entirely new applications.

The candidate must be a flexible, results-oriented problem-solver who requires minimal supervision. Projects can vary greatly from one to the next, so you should thrive on variety and enjoy taking on new challenges. The candidate have expertise of writing scientific papers/reports and is an inter-disciplinary communicater, and problem solver. Good knowledge of spoken and written English is required.
