Job Description

Personalised health care will enrich people’s lives. To get there, we need to gain an indepth understanding of massive amounts of health data. As an Assistant or Associate Professor at the Delft Center for Systems and Control (DCSC) you will conduct fundamental research geared to processing, analysing, mining and interpreting data. Working closely with medical experts and hospitals, you’ll be designing new algorithms, models and methods which will have a profound impact on anything from diagnostics, predictive health care and control of biological systems to the development of emerging medical apps and instruments.

You will focus on the development of new data-driven modelling, signal processing, and control methods for AI-driven decision making to improve personalised health care. Based on your vision, you will write project proposals and attract funding from the Dutch Research Council (NWO), EU institutes and the health care industry. You will also be building your team of PhD candidates whom you will supervise and coach to completion. To expand your network, you will play an active role in relevant communities and organisations, such as Convergence Health & Technology. Education too is a crucial part of your role, as you will teach Master students and supervise their thesis projects.

At DCSC you’ll be joining our highly motivated, international 25-strong team of
professors and scientists, and our growing group of postdocs and PhD candidates. We offer you an open, friendly and highly supportive environment, in which you’ll get all the training and coaching you need to develop your academic career. We do not distinguish between hierarchical levels and have a strong collaborative culture, in which we interact on a daily basis. Sharing a drive to strengthen the position of DCSC as a whole, we combine and harness TU Delft’s expertise in systems and control.
