Job Opportunities

We have a further three job opportunities within the Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering (iMBE), available as part of The Centre of Excellence in Medical Engineering funded by the Wellcome Trust and EPSRC newly formed here at Leeds.

The Centre of Excellence in Medical Engineering funded by the Wellcome Trust and EPSRC aims to improve the quality of life and economic productivity of the ageing population through novel diagnosis and interventions for cardiovascular and musculoskeletal disease including new biosensors and methods of imaging, longer lasting joint replacements, novel regenerative scaffolds for cardiovascular and musculoskeletal applications, and targeted delivery of autologous stem cells.

The Centre will translate internationally leading multidisciplinary research into innovative products and services to directly address clinical needs enabling us all to enjoy an active life for longer and ultimately achieve '50 more years from 50'. WELMEC, which supports fifty academic and fifty research staff across seven departments in the University and the Leeds Teaching hospital Trust, is hosted through the Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering (iMBE), one of the top bioengineering research institutes in the world. In addition to this, WELMEC is aligned to a wider programme of medical and biological engineering research which will involve over 200 research staff and students supported by over £100m of research funding over the next five years.
