Ph.D. positions in Electrical Engineering are immediately available within the joint research group of Dr. Mohamed Aly Saad Aly and Dr. Salama Ikki. The location of the student will be at Lakehead University, Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.
There are two assigned projects for these positions:
1. Neurophysiological Interfaces
a. This project will focus in designing, modeling, analyzing, fabricating and testing microelectrodes to be used as a neurophysiological interface and neurological diagnostic tool to study and investigate the behavior and functions of neural cells in efforts to detect and further study nervous system diseases.
b. The preferred qualifications include:
i. Background in micro-fabrication and cleanroom environment
ii. Background in MEMs Finite element analysis (FEA)
iii. Previous knowledge of neurobiology or interest in gaining the knowledge
iv. Background in cell culture is a plus
2. X-ray bio-imagining
a. This project will focus on enhancing the quality of the image in X-ray based bio-imaging diagnostic tools such as X-ray cinefluorographic systems (C-Arm and U-Arm). This will target the X-ray generation and detection as well as the signal processing stages of the captured image.
b. The preferred qualifications include:
i. Background in micro-fabrication and cleanroom environment
ii. Background in X-ray bio-imaging and image processing
iii. Strong background in electronics
iv. Experience in Electronics/circuits design/simulation packages
Applicants are required to send the following to Dr. Mohamed Aly Saad Aly at [email protected].:
· Undergraduate and graduate transcripts
· CV that includes education, experience, list of publications and
names and emails of references
If you have questions regarding these positions, you can contact Dr. Mohamed Aly Saad Aly at [email protected]
All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority. All positions are subject to budgetary approval.
