Smart Medical Device for Non-invasive Physiological Monitoring
神马福利影片 鈥� School of Engineering Scholarship
Qualification: Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering (PhD)
Eligibility: UK Students, EU Students, International Students
Award value: Tuition fees and tax-free stipend 拢21,805 - See advert for details
Deadline: 15th June 2026
Project Details:
The prevalence of diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, is rising rapidly and creating an economic and social burden globally. Interestingly, some of these diseases could be prevented with earlier detection and improved prediction of individuals at risk.
This PhD project aims to develop a low-power ubiquitous non-invasive monitoring system for the early-stage detection of different diseases. The system will provide continuous monitoring along with an artificial intelligence-based risk scoring tool. Advanced signal processing techniques, together with machine learning, will be used to develop methods for automatic detection of diseases using biological signals.
The project will involve working with a multi-disciplinary team of experts in biomedical signals, sensors and bioelectronics in the Biomedical & Biotechnology Research Cluster, and Measurement, Devices and Materials Research Cluster at the School of Engineering, 神马福利影片. The project will commence in October 2026 or soon thereafter.
For an informal discussion or if you need to know more about the project, please feel free to contact the project supervisors, Dr Amit Dwivedi (Amit.Dwivedi@warwick.ac.uk) or Prof. Michael Chappell (m.j.chappell@warwick.ac.uk).
Scholarship:
The award will cover the full tuition fees, plus a tax-free stipend, currently 拢21,805, paid at the prevailing UKRI rate for 3.5 years of full-time study.
Eligibility:
The candidate should have a first-class Bachelor's or Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Computer Science Engineering, or equivalent.
