    Job description

    We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Biomedical Engineer to join our research team working to develop novel non-invasive tests for the diagnosis of respiratory muscle (diaphragm) weakness. The ideal candidate for this position will hold a PhD (or be near completion) in Biomedical Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering or a closely related discipline, and will have strong MATLAB coding skills.

The work will be conducted in the Centre for Human and Applied Physiological Sciences laboratories in the Department of Respiratory Medicine at the Denmark Hill campus of King's College London. You will be responsible for prospective data collection in healthy human participants, dataset curation, processing and analytical methods development and will regularly communicate their findings to multidisciplinary audiences. The successful candidate will receive teaching in respiratory physiology monitoring and advanced respiratory muscle testing to a level sufficient to understand the aims of the project and collect physiological data independently.

    This post will be offered on a fixed term contract to 21 November 2025.
