  • Australian New Zealand Intensive Care Research Centre (ANZIC RC) - Monash University, Alfred Campus

The Department

The ANZIC-RC is a major clinical research method centre for Intensive Care in Australia and New Zealand based in the Monash School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine at the Alfred Hospital campus. The Centre is involved in the establishment of comprehensive research programs comprising surveys and pilot studies through to large multicentre clinical trials.

The Role
This is an exciting opportunity for a graduate of computer science or biomedical engineering (or equivalent) ideally with a background in computing and signal processing to join our multidisciplinary team working on the BONANZA traumatic brain injury trial. This position is well suited to a new graduate who is looking to advance their career in clinical research and gain hands on experience in a thriving and dynamic environment.

The BONANZA trial is a randomised controlled trial in patients with severe traumatic brain injury that will determine whether a neuro-intensive care management strategy guided by continuous brain tissue oxygen (PbtO2) monitoring will improve long term neurological outcomes compared to standard care which uses intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring.

We are looking to recruit a motivated and reliable full-time research officer to supervise the data collection process (remotely with occasional site visits) using a pioneering clinical research software solution (ICM+).

Skills

  • A degree of signal processing and signal analysis knowledge.
  • Excellent computer literacy and computer programming skills.
  • A range of skills at least in MATLAB, Python or R.
  • Good organisational and time management skills.
  • Analytical skills and attention to detail

Benefits

Our core business is the design and conduct of world class clinical trials. Apply if you consider you have the requisite skills and would like to be part of a dynamic and supportive team that designs and conducts cutting edge research that determines the best and most cost-effective practice in Intensive Care Medicine.

Other benefits:

  • Salary Packaging
  • Discount Health Insurance
