Syed Babar Ali School of Science and Engineering are in search for prospective candidates, who can become part of Electrical Engineering faculty and catalyze the initiation of a graduate program in the field of Biomedical Systems.

Under the biomedical systems concentration, we are hoping to recruit up to three candidates. In the ideal candidates we are looking for, we expect a mix of expertise. We need a candidate with a solid expertise and interest in human anatomy and physiological systems, with deep interest in tools, devices and algorithms that aid in measurement, control and assistance to physiological functions, medical intervention, health rehabilitation and surgery. An important subdiscipline is the creation of autonomous devices, electromechanical instruments and robots who can further the cause of human health. The invention of new medical devices would certainly be supported by disciplinary knowledge in electronics, embedded systems, circuit design, mechanical engineering, biocompatible fluids, structures, computer-aided design and prototyping. Finally, with rapid advances in data tools and artificial intelligence, we are also looking for one candidate in the sub-discipline of biomedical AI and its applications in diagnosis and therapies.

Please note that at the moment we are not specifically looking for expertise in biomedical materials, tissue engineering from a materials perspective, nor nanomaterials. The candidate must hold a PhD with an established record of publication, discovery or invention. Since we are hoping to convert this concentration into a master's level program, we do expect a deep desire in education and curricular development as well.

Applications or CV's can be sent to the email address: biomedical@lums.edu.pk
