The Opportunity
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team at Monash University to investigate the functional brain response of infants born preterm using state-of-the-art multi-channel near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The project aims to detect socio-cognitive disorders early in preterm infants and explore correlations between neurovascular physiology, neuroimaging, and neurodevelopmental assessments.
Research Focus
The successful candidate will be part of a multidisciplinary cohort of clinicians and researchers based at Monash Newborn and Department of Paediatrics. The research will focus on the use of NIRS to assess the functional brain response of preterm infants and explore its potential as an early detection tool for socio-cognitive disorders.
Supervisory Team
The principal supervisor will be Associate Professor Flora Wong, a consultant neonatologist and clinician-scientist with research expertise in neonatal brain development, brain injury, and neuroprotection. Co-supervisors will include Dr Robin Laycock, a vision neuroscientist at RMIT University, and other experts in the field.
Eligibility Requirements
Candidates must meet the Monash University minimum requirements for admission to a PhD. A cover letter, CV, and academic transcript(s) are required for application.
How to Apply
For general instructions on how to apply for roles at Monash, please refer to 'How to apply for Monash Jobs'. To express interest in this scholarship and PhD research opportunity, please submit a cover letter, CV, and academic transcript(s) to Associate Professor Flora Wong.
