Podium Institute for Sports Medicine and Technology The Podium Institute for Sports Medicine and Technology at the University of Oxford is a long-term partnership bringing together leaders across sport, science, academia, technology, and business. The initial work of the institute will focus on traumatic injuries such as concussion and serious musculoskeletal injuries, as well as sudden cardiac death and the psychological factors that lead to Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Wearable Technologies for Sport Medicine JD-SC 4 injury. The institute sits within the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (IBME) in the University’s Department of Engineering Science. The Podium institute aims to shift the traditional emphasis of research into sports injury - which is predominantly adult-centric and based upon treatment – by concentrating on younger athletes, 11-18 years old, and focuses on prevention rather than cure. The institute will aim to develop new technologies to monitor and analyse the individual factors that currently lead to youth sports injuries, and offer practical solutions for safer sports practices, focusing on safety for lifelong health, rather than performance. A hallmark of the Institute is the development and validation of new technologies for sport injury detection and prevention and for lifelong health. Institute of Biomedical Engineering The Institute of Biomedical Engineering (IBME), a research institute of the Department of Engineering Science, is situated on the Old Road Campus in Headington (about a mile from the centre of Oxford), close to the Churchill Hospital, the Oxford Cancer Hospital and less than half a mile away from the John Radcliffe Hospitals and the Children’s Hospital. The current Institute Director is Prof. Constantin Coussios FREng. Primary activities (and the central administration for the IBME) are based at the Old Road Campus Research Building, with activities in the Botnar Research Centre, Big Data Institute and on the Keble Road Triangle site of the Department of Engineering Science. The IBME offers a world-class and vibrant venue for biomedical engineering research and postgraduate research training where engineers and clinicians work together on addressing unmet needs in the prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of major diseases and conditions. The Institute’s core mission is to develop novel medical devices, healthcare technologies, and systems capable of delivering substantial healthcare benefit, and to translate new engineering technologies into clinical practice. The Institute won a Queen’s Anniversary Prize for its healthcare technology innovation activities in 2015. Oxford biomedical engineering has a sustained track record of translational research and healthcare technology commercialisation which goes back to the 1960s but has been particularly prolific in the last two decades. The Oxfordshire region’s life sciences and healthcare innovation system is also recognised as one of the most dynamic in Europe, and provides opportunities for academic-business collaborations, industrial-funded research collaborations, as well as a destination for university research innovations and a trained skilled workforce. Within the IBME there are currently six research clusters: Biomedical Image Analysis, Neurotechnology & Brain Therapies, Biomedical Signal Processing, Modelling and Instrumentation, Non-invasive Therapy and Drug Delivery, Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine & Biomechanics. In addition, we strive to provide a supportive environment for independent early career researchers which include Royal Academy of Engineering Research Fellows as well as Junior Research Fellows. More information about the Institute and its research programmes may be found at www.ibme.ox.ac.uk. Engineering Science Department Engineering teaching and research takes place at Oxford in a unified Department of Engineering Science whose academic staff are committed to a common engineering foundation as well as to advanced work in their own specialties, which include most branches of the subject. We have especially strong links with computer science, materials science, medicine and also the Saïd Business School. The Department employs 120 academic staff (this number includes 13 statutory professors appointed in the main branches of the discipline, and 25 full professors); in addition, there are nine visiting professors. There is an experienced team of teaching support staff, professional services and administrative staff and technicians. The Department has well-equipped laboratories and workshops, which together with Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Wearable Technologies for Sport Medicine JD-SC 5 offices, lecture theatres, library and other facilities have a net floor area of about 25,000 square metres. The Department is ranked fifth in the world, and the top European University, in the 2023 Times Higher Education World University Rankings for Engineering & Technology. Further information about the Department is available at www.eng.ox.ac.uk. Teaching We aim to admit 170-180 undergraduates per year to take a 4-year course leading to the MEng degree in Engineering Science. The course is accredited at MEng level by the major engineering institutions. The syllabus has a common core extending through the first two years. Specialist options are introduced in the third year, and the fourth year includes further specialist material and a major project. Research Research in the Department is particularly strong. We have approximately 600 research students and about 250 postdoctoral researchers. Direct funding of research grants and contracts, from a variety of sources, amounts to an annual turnover of approximately £70m. The results of the seven-yearly UK-wide assessment of university research, REF2021, published on 12th May 2022, demonstrate that the University of Oxford made the highest volume of world-leading research submissions. The Department of Engineering Science had 71% of submissions which met the requirements for the highest grading of 4*(research that is world-leading in terms of originality, significance, and rigour). Research activities fall into 8 broad headings, though there is much overlapping in practice: Information Engineering (Robotics, Computer Vision and Machine Learning); Control; Thermofluids; Materials and Mechanics; Civil and Offshore; Electrical and Optoelectronic; Chemical and Process; and Biomedical. The Department of Engineering Science holds a bronze Athena Swan award to recognise advancement of gender equality: representation, progression and success for all. The Mathematical, Physical, and Life Sciences Division The Mathematical, Physical, and Life Sciences (MPLS) Division is one of the four academic divisions of the University. In the results of the six-yearly UK-wide assessment of university research, REF2014, the MPLS division received the highest overall grade point average (GPA) and the highest GPA for outputs. We received the highest proportion of 4* outputs, and the highest proportion of 4* activity overall. More than 50 per cent of MPLS activity was assessed as world leading. The MPLS Division's 10 departments and 3 interdisciplinary units span the full spectrum of the mathematical, computational, physical, engineering and life sciences, and undertake both fundamental research and cutting-edge applied work. Our research addresses major societal and technological challenges and is increasingly focused on key interdisciplinary issues. MPLS is proud to be the home of some of the most creative and innovative scientific thinkers and leaders working in academe. We have a strong tradition of attracting and nurturing the very best early career researchers who regularly secure prestigious fellowships We have around 6,000 students and play a major role in training the next generation of leading scientists. Oxford's international reputation for excellence in teaching is reflected in its position at the top of the major league tables and subject assessments. MPLS is dedicated to bringing the wonder and potential of science to the attention of audiences far beyond the world of academia. We have a strong commitment to supporting public engagement in Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Wearable Technologies for Sport Medicine JD-SC 6 science through initiatives including the Oxford Sparks portal (http://www.oxfordsparks.net/) and a large variety of outreach activities. We also endeavour to bring the potential of our scientific efforts forward for practical and beneficial application to the real world and our desire is to link our best scientific minds with industry and public policy makers.
