Are you passionate about robotics, AI, and revolutionizing healthcare? This PhD opportunity offers the chance to pioneer advanced robotic systems that will redefine rehabilitation for brain injury patients. Robotic systems have shown immense potential in assisting with recovery, but ensuring the safe and adaptive application of force in real time remains a critical challenge.
In this research, you will explore innovative solutions to improve patient outcomes through AI-enhanced robotic therapy. You will focus on developing adaptive soft robotic systems that deliver precise, real-time force control using deep learning and Finite Element Analysis (FEA). These breakthroughs will push the boundaries of robotics, contributing to safer and more effective rehabilitation therapies.
As a PhD candidate, you will:
This research has the potential to transform rehabilitation technology and revolutionize how therapy is delivered. Your work will address real-world challenges, bridging the gap between advanced robotics and healthcare.
We are looking for candidates who are highly motivated, with excellent programming skills and a strong passion for robotics and machine learning. Knowledge in soft robotics, deep learning, force estimation, and problem-solving will be an advantage.
Join us in shaping the future of rehabilitation technology. Apply now to make an impact in a rapidly growing and life-changing field.
The School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering has seen 100% of its research impact rated as ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’ (REF, 2021).
