Full Job Description: Job Description - Assistant Programme Director IN-CYPHER

Deadline 7 May 2024

Salary: $9,000 to $14,000 Monthly

Imperial College London and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) are seeking an Assistant Programme Director for the Imperial/NTU CYber Protection for HEalthcaRe (IN-CYPHER) research programme on the cybersecurity of connected medical devices and systems. The research programme represents a collaboration between the United Kingdom and Singapore and will be based at the newly established Imperial Global Singapore (IGS) as National Research Foundations Campus for Research Excellence and Technological Enterprise (CREATE) located on the campus of the National University of Singapore. This senior role will be responsible for leading the coordination of the IN-CYPHER research team, working across the themes in collaboration with the Programme Co-Directors.

IN-CYPHER is comprised of four interacting themes, spanning the design of intelligent medical devices through to the use of their data in informing personalised healthcare. Allied to other programmes in Singapore and the UK, it represents a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of research and development into securing the vital information that flows between implantable, wearable and connected medical devices, including those currently in use, and those yet to be developed. The four themes of IN-CYPHER are:

• Theme 1 Protecting Implantable Devices
• Theme 2 Securing Connected Wearables & Healthcare Systems
• Theme 3 Algorithms for Privacy, Security and Provenance
• Theme 4 Clinical Innovation & Translation

One area of personalised medicine resides in the use of data for closed-loop drug delivery, including insulin delivery. With key researchers and teams from both Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, we seek to develop threat models that are suitable for emerging approaches to personalised medicine, and particularly where data-driven techniques might offer improvements to patient outcomes.

Given the span of the IN-CYPHER programme, we are looking to build up an interdisciplinary team of highly motivated engineers, scientists, and researchers to represent the founding team of the IN-CYPHER programme. The Assistant Programme Director, IN-CYPHER will be tasked with leading the coordination of this team working across the themes in collaboration with the Programme Co-Directors.

The collaborating Departments include senior academics from the Department of Metabolism, Digestion and Reproduction and the Department of Bioengineering at Imperial – the largest Biomedical Engineering Department in the UK – and senior researchers from the School of Computer Science and Engineering (SCSE), School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine at Nanyang Technological University. Candidates will be employed by Imperial Global Singapore, a research division of Imperial College London, consistently ranked within the top 10 of the QS University Rankings. Candidates must be resident and based in Singapore, but there will be opportunities for research visits to Imperial's London-based locations.
