Biophysical Simulation Engineer with English

Leader and innovative biomedical company is looking for someone ready to proactively bring new ideas to the team push boundaries and constantly look for innovation. The company believes on shared success and diverse ways of thinking here youll learn grow and advance in an innovative culture.

As a Simulation Engineer you are responsible for using and improving the companys insilico environment to simulate electromagnetic fields and their measurement with realistic biophysical sensors (neural sensing) and to simulate neurocomputational models and their modulation with stimulation. All within realistic anatomical brain models.

You will collaborate with data scientists to enable these in silico capabilities to test and rapidly iterate the development of algorithms for neural signal processing and neuromodulation. You will also collaborate with electrical and material science engineers to optimize the neural sensing and neuromodulation capabilities of our neural implant. Finally you will collaborate with a field engineer to transfer insilico tests to in vitro bench tests to validate algorithms developed within the team and rapidly adjust and iterate on their development before preclinical invivo testing.

As the project matures you will further support the development team to virtually prototype and evaluate implant designs and patient safety regarding compatibility with medical imaging (MRI CT etc.) heat dissipation and effect of externally applied electrosurgery and defibrillation currents.

Tasks

• Using and improving an insilico framework to simulate brain signals and their neuromodulation with electrical fields. This is in the scope of basal ganglia and corticothalamic networks and is based on available neurocomputational and neuromodulation models.
• Integrate and maintain our current insilico capabilities to model anatomically realistic conductivity models and the biophysical transduction of electromagnetic fields at the sensor level.
• Use the insilico framework to test and validate signal processing pipelines and machine learning algorithms developed within the team for future preclinical and clinical in vivo applications.
• Work closely with Data and Algorithm engineers to design the best test environments for the desired datadriven algorithmic interventions.
• Work closely with Data scientists and Neuroscientists to design and implement the simulation capabilities regarding the network dynamics and brain signals of relevance in Parkinsons disease and affected structures.
• Build parametrized electrode arrays and expand the inhouse biophysical simulation capabilities used to optimize electrode array designs and perform sensitivity analysis and evaluations.
• Design bench/invitro test paradigms that will enable to further test and validate the algorithms previously tested and iterated using the insilico platform.
• Support experimental execution of relevant data collection.

Requirements

• Master or PhD with a background in neuroengineering neuroscience biomedical engineering or physics.
• Experienced in using simulation platforms like COMSOL Sim4Life and/or other relevant platforms.
• Experience in finite elements applied to electromagnetic field simulation.
