Post-doc position at the University of Geneva (CH): Fusion of ultrasound and motion capture to measure knee kinematics.
The Kinesiology laboratory (K-Lab) at University of Geneva opens a one-year position starting the 1st of February 2020 for a post-doc at 0.6 FTE (48.000 CHF) on the fusion of motion capture and ultrasound imaging to measure knee kinematics during gait. The goal of this position is to make a proof of concept and measure the kinematics of at least one participant with this technique. More details can be found on the following link:
We are looking for a candidate with experience in ultrasound imaging or medical imaging, specifically on segmentation and registration. The planned tasks for this project will be as follow:
The K-Lab also offers a possibility to extend to 1 FTE with 0.4 FTE (32.000CHF) on a project related to big data in Clinical Gait Analysis.
You can send your resume and cover letter to: xavier.gasparutto@hcuge.ch

We are looking for a candidate with experience in ultrasound imaging or medical imaging, specifically on segmentation and registration. The planned tasks for this project will be as follow:
- Synchronise 4 US transducers
- Achieve spatial calibration of the plane of measurement of the US transducers with respect to the motion capture system
- Develop a system to attach the transducers to the participant.
- Perform the bone segmentation on US images
- Identify a model of the femur and tibia of the participant from US images (a generic model could be used as a starter)
- Registration of the models of the femur and tibia on the US images during gait to identify the bone pose and thus the kinematics.
The K-Lab also offers a possibility to extend to 1 FTE with 0.4 FTE (32.000CHF) on a project related to big data in Clinical Gait Analysis.
