Postdoctoral Researcher Opportunity

INFANT Research Centre, University College Cork
Fixed Term: 24 Months (Full-Time)

The INFANT Research Centre at University College Cork is inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join the SOPHIE Project (School-age Outcome Prediction using radiomic imaging algorithms in Hypoxic Ischaemic Encephalopathy).

About the Project

The SOPHIE project aims to improve how we predict long-term outcomes for infants affected by hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE). This research focuses on developing advanced MRI-based biomarkers that can help identify children at risk of altered brain development and cognitive challenges at school age.

The project involves:

  • MRI scanning and neurocognitive assessment of school-age children with a history of HIE, alongside matched controls
  • Advanced quantitative MRI analysis
  • Identification of imaging features linked to neurodevelopmental outcomes
  • Development of machine learning models to predict future brain development
  • Integration of imaging and clinical data to improve early prediction tools

Role Overview

The successful candidate will contribute to a multidisciplinary research programme combining neuroimaging, data analysis, and machine learning to advance understanding of early brain injury and long-term outcomes.

Salary

€46,805 – €53,391 per annum (IUA PD1 Salary Scale)

8. Senior Research Co-Ordinator – Software Engineer

The INFANT Centre is leading the ELEVATE Programme which is a 5-year programme focused on the prevention, early detection, and treatment of brain injury and cerebral palsy (CP) in infants. The ELEVATE Programme has been jointly funded by Research Ireland and the Cerebral Palsy Foundation. An integrated research database and register for people that suffer from CP will be developed as part of the programme. Families of children with CP cite access to accurate and individualised information as a barrier to participating in the latest research trials and obtaining cutting-edge healthcare information. When registers have been implemented in other countries, they have led to massive reductions in chronic pain and invasive surgeries to manage that pain in children with CP. There is a well-defined foundational dataset at the core of CP Registers that is well understood that will be built on.
The register will integrate with hospital electronic health record systems and will also integrate with a research database that collates data from clinical studies. A data manager and data analyst will be part of the team and will help understand and access this data.
The software engineer will have the responsibility for the design and implementation of the register. They may need to apply themselves to different technologies and domains – there is the opportunity to get experience in a wide range of interesting tools.
There is a great opportunity to evolve sound development practices such as configuration control and continuous integration. A register manager and principal investigator will work with multiple stakeholders to identify and prioritise their requirements during the lifetime of the project. The software engineer will be able to support this work with incremental development that allows stakeholders to visualise solutions.
The successful candidate will have a can-do attitude and will be prepared to support other research projects within the INFANT Centre.

9. Senior Research Co-Ordinator – Physiotherapist (Part-time)

INFANT Research Centre is now accepting applications for an enthusiastic and committed individual to work with the team. Many of our studies require a physiotherapy assessment of infants and older children.Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common lifelong physical disability. The Elevate programme aims to improve both the Early Detection of Cerebral Palsy, and the outcomes for those with CP. The Elevate program will also include several intervention studies for those identified as high risk for CP or who have developed CP.
A Research Physiotherapist is sought to support the Elevate programme of research. The individual will be involved in the follow-up of high-risk infants and will be required to perform specific standardised assessments including the General Movements assessment, the HINE exam, AIMS and Bayley Scales of Infant Development. Knowledge of these assessments would be an advantage. Additional responsibilities will include supervision and administration of therapy in the intervention studies. Training will be provided on the specific techniques used in the intervention studies, but experience in providing therapy interventions for children with CP is preferred.  Additional responsibilities will include data collection and data entry to research databases.
All researchers involved in the ELEVATE programme will actively participate in PPI and EPE activities and we will provide training for these activities.
This is a part time (0.5) role and will necessitate travel between sites involved in the studies.
