Director of Study: Prof. Reza Saatchi
Additional Information: Open to all students; self-funded/governments sponsored/industry funded.
All studies are innovative, aiming to meet a real unmet need in medical engineering. Most are in collaboration with industry and hospitals
Summary
Predicting the probability of survival in trauma (injury) is important and challenging. The prediction can assist clinicians and healthcare managers to improve audits and compare clinical practices. In this study a variety of artificial intelligence and statistical methods will be developed to predict probability of survival in trauma. The methods will be carefully validated on the available data.
The work is primarily suited for graduates with a degree or MSc in electronics, physics, mathematics, computing, mechanics or related subjects.
