This post-doctoral position will focus on the analysis of multimodal human physiological feature analysis and modelling to monitor individuals' health states. Specifically, the post-doctoral researcher will develop multimodal human signal and system fusion algorithms and physiological model-based machine learning models to track the health condition and psychosocial factors of individuals (e.g., elderly or people with a high risk of obesity) using different modal physiological signals, such as inertial measurement unit (IMU), electrocardiography (ECG), photoplethysmogram (PPG), and Electrodermal activity (EDA) signals. The post-doctoral researcher will apply and develop techniques, including multimodal and model-based signal analysis, human physiological dynamic systems, and machine learning modelling.

The prospective post-doctoral researcher is expected to perform high-quality- and internationally visible research with publications in high-rank peer- reviewed journals. The candidate will be mainly (co-)supervised by Dr. Ying Wang, prof. Peter H. Veltink, and Prof. Miriam Vollenbroek-Hutten, Biomedical Signals and Systems (BSS) at the University of Twente and closely collaborate with the other partners within the IMPROve project and the HeathlyW8 project. The candidate will be appointed for a period of 27 months with 0.15 FTE for teaching tasks. During this period, the candidate will be offered the opportunity to broaden their knowledge and network by joining in the Dutch and European consortium meetings and by participating in (inter-)national conferences and workshops.

About the department

Biomedical Signals and Systems (BSS: https: // www. utwente.nl/en/eemcs/bss) is a multidisciplinary group based in Electrical Engineering, focussing on finding solutions for medical challenges via signal and system analysis. Advanced (ambulatory) sensor technology combined with our broad knowledge of the human body as a dynamic system enables (eHealth) technology to improve prevention, diagnosis and treatment of sensory, motor and internal dysfunction in clinical and home/selfcare setting. Our research helps to improve the quality of life of elderly, people with chronic diseases and rehabilitation patients. The research mission of the Biomedical Signals and Systems (BSS) group is to:

・ enable improved diagnosis and treatment of patients with motor, sensory and cardiopulmonary dysfunction in clinical and home/self-care setting,

・ by developing knowledge, methods and tools for identification, control and modulation of neural, muscular and cardiopulmonary systems, cognition and behaviour,

・ using smart sensing, novel data analysis techniques and selective actuation technology or personalized eHealth technologies that enable prevention, timely diagnostics, and personalised coaching & treatment for chronic care and rehabilitation.About the organisation

The faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) uses mathematics, electronics and computer technology to contribute to the development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). With ICT present in almost every device and product we use nowadays, we embrace our role as contributors to a broad range of societal activities and as pioneers of tomorrow's digital society. As part of a people-first tech university that aims to shape society, individuals and connections, our faculty works together intensively with industrial partners and researchers in the Netherlands and abroad, and conducts extensive research for external commissioning parties and funders. Our research has a high profile both in the Netherlands and internationally. It has been accommodated in three multidisciplinary UT research institutes: Mesa+ Institute, TechMed Centre and Digital Society Institute.
