Immediate PhD research opportunities in the Royal British Legion Centre for Blast Injury Studies at Imperial College London
This is an immediate call for the second cohort of PhD studentships to be based in the Royal British Legion Centre for Blast Injury Studies at Imperial College London (CBIS). The Centre was established following a multimillion pound donation by the Royal British Legion, and presents a unique opportunity for successful candidates to work with a collaborative team of military and civilian clinicians, scientists and engineers.
Successful students will undertake research leading to platform and application technologies with the central aim of understanding and mitigating blast injuries, commonly caused by improvised explosive devices. The cohort will benefit from a continuous education program running alongside the research program. Four to six appointments will be made depending of the quality of candidates.
Interested applicants should look at the research strategy and priorities document available at https://www.imperial.ac.uk/blastinju...researchthemes before submitting an application indicating their specific area of interest with an outline research proposal.
It is expected that candidates will come from a range of disciplines, but must have an outstanding undergraduate background, and be able to demonstrate expertise in experimental, analytical and computational work.
All applicants should submit a formal application with the Department of Bioengineering through the Imperial College London online application system, clearly marking the application for the Centre for Blast Injury Studies, as well as emailing a CV, cover letter and outline research proposal (maximum 500 words) in PDF format to blast@imperial.ac.uk
Funding for the PhD studentships includes a stipend at the standard rate, fees and running costs.
Applicants must be eligible for HOME/EU fees status.
The closing date for applications is 22nd April 2013. Shortlisted applicants will be contacted shortly after 25th April and invited for interview in early May.
