Description

Ref: MC-ESR-CMOS-14 You are invited for 1 full time and fixed-term position under the EDISON project. The EDISON projects aims to develop sensors for radiotherapy and other biomedical imaging applications as well as design next generation of digital cameras with better colour capturing abilities through nano-optical structures. You will be enrolled in PhD/DPhil at the University of Oxford with a requirement to spend at least 50% of time with an industry, Awaiba, in the island of Maderia. The secondment will be in 1 or 2 phases of a minimum of 6 months and maximum of 18 months (to a total maximum of 18 months). Essential Criteria: •A first class undergraduate degree in Engineering (General or Electrical/Electronics/Communication), Computer Science, Physics or equivalent •Experience in one or more of the following through employment, project work or advanced coursework •VLSI/ analogue circuit design •Nanofabrication •FPGA based system design (VHDL or Verilog) •Image processing software design •Biomedical electronics •Good written and spoken communication skills – English skills as required by University regulations •Excellent record of academic and/or professional achievement The following skills are desirable but not essential: •Publications in international conferences and/or journals •Experience in the field of CMOS image sensors •Experience of Cadence or any other chip design software •Experience of Matlab •Advanced knowledge of any programming language (for example C, C++, Java) •Experience with digital cameras and image processing Additional Candidate Requirements Prospective candidates must meet the residency criteria for Marie Curie fellowships, as described in the EC’s regulations on early career researchers: •Early Stage Researchers must be in the first four years (full-time equivalent) of their research careers and not yet have been awarded a doctoral degree. This is measured from the date when they obtained the degree which would formally entitle them to embark on a doctorate, either in the country in which the degree was obtained or in the country in which the research training is provided, irrespective of whether or not a doctorate is envisaged. •Furthermore, at the time of recruitment, researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc) in UK for more than 12 months in the three years immediately prior to the reference date. Exceptions to these criteria cannot be made. You are required to send a CV and a covering letter (explaining your suitability for the study, what you hope to achieve from the PhD and your research experience to date) to studentsh

Benefits

Annual living and mobility allowance will be up to €67,200 - the exact value of the fellowship will depend upon employer deductions, personal circumstances and the applicable exchange rate.
