| Overview of PIPS organisation |
| At Neuronostics, we use the power of mathematical modelling to develop novel biomarkers that create faster paths to diagnosis and effective treatment. Our first clinical indication, BioEP, is an entirely new digital biomarker of epilepsy. BioEP uses background electroencephalography (EEG) data and mathematical modelling to predict the likelihood of having active epilepsy, supporting clinical diagnostic and prognostic decisions. Our Research and Development department works to further refine, develop, and test those digital biomarkers in diverse clinical contexts. |
| Placement offered |
| The placement will involve a research and development role, leveraging data science to analyse and interpret neurological EEG data using the company’s novel digital biomarkers to aid epilepsy diagnosis. The placement offers an opportunity to apply and develop coding skills in a biomedical context, gain hands-on experience with industry-led approaches to data-driven research, and understand how MedTech innovations are translated into clinical devices. |
| Person specification |
- Experience in a data analysis, ideally with physiological data
- Experience in problem-solving
- Proficiency in programming languages, ideally python
- Ability to communicate findings via data visualisation
- Good written and oral communication skills, for example in communicating findings at both expert and non-expert levels.
- Strong motivation and interest in research on neurological conditions.
