Cranfield University and Probe Scientific Ltd are seeking a highly motivated graduate to undertake a PhD research project in biofluid analysis. The project focuses on developing, through groundbreaking innovation, novel fibre optical (bio)chemical sensors for the clinical analysis of human blood in conjunction with Probe Scientific's micro blood sampling device. The intention is to use the results of this project to develop a real-time patient monitoring system that will improve patient care and reduce health care costs. This could provide significant benefits for healthcare in developing countries. Especial effort needs to be devoted to the measurement and data analysis aspects of the sensor. . . . → Read More: PhD position in biofluid analysis @ Cranfield University, UK
