What You Will Do
- Design and execute pre-registered research studies with fixed endpoints to ensure scientific rigor and absolute institutional honesty in findings.
- Analyze physiological time series and EEG data, identifying failure modes and reporting results with high methodological integrity to regulators and peers.
- Architect and manage the company’s clinical partner relationships, serving as the primary scientific bridge to neurologists and intensive care units.
The ideal candidate
- Possesses deep expertise in analyzing physiological time series and the ability to design studies that can withstand rigorous regulatory and academic scrutiny.
- Demonstrates the communication skills necessary to engage consultant intensivists as peers and write distinctively for both academic publications and regulatory bodies.
