at University of Oxford Department of Engineering ScienceUnited Kingdom ENGINEERING SCIENCE Careers Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Temporal Reasoning and Ultrasound Video Analysis Salary £39,424 - £47,779 per annum Closing date Oct 09, 2026 12:00PM Share on BlueSky Share on Facebook Share on LinkedIn Description PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A RE-ADVERTISEMENT, PREVIOUS APPLICANTS NEED NOT APPLY About The Role We are seeking a creative and highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join the Turing AI World-Leading Fellowship research programme led by Professor Alison Noble. This exciting and ambitious research aims to develop new AI for shared human-AI decision-making in healthcare imaging. This post focuses on bridging theory and application of temporal reasoning and ultrasound video analysis from the human-AI collaboration (HAIC) perspective. You will be part of the Noble research group at the Institute of Biomedical Engineering, based at the Old Road Campus in Headington. The full-time post is funded by UKRI and is fixed term for 24 months. About You You will be working in a small highly motivated inter-disciplinary team working towards a shared goal. You will be responsible for the design and pilot testing of machine learning-based automated ultrasound video analysis models that incorporate temporal reasoning. The research will also include work that aims to understand how human behaviour may change with temporal reasoning ultrasound AI tools. Thus, the work will involve both computational methods research and collaborating with clinical domain experts to design and evaluate models in simulated and real clinical scenarios. Evaluation may involve quantitative studies (model performance) and qualitative studies (human factors assessment). You should hold a relevant PhD/DPhil (or near completion) and have publications in medical image analysis or computer vision video analysis. Knowledge of ultrasound imaging is not a requirement but an interest in research at the interface of machine learning with real-world applications and use is essential.
