PhD student Digital Twinning for a Serious and Personalized Diabetes Game
by Riel, N.A.W. van 21 Jan '20

21 Jan '20

Position for a PhD student in Biomedical Systems Biology at Eindhoven University of Technology: https://jobs.tue.nl/en/vacancy/phd-student-digital-twinning-for-a-serious-a… . The PhD candidate will develop and apply dynamic models of human metabolic physiology to develop 'Digital Twins' of patients with diabetes. Digital twins are virtual copies of human metabolic physiology that enable simulations based on data collected from the patient and artificial intelligence. The models are expected to perform realistic simulation of glucose and insulin dynamics in response to the intake of food, the effect of medication, physical activity and mental stress and should allow for large differences between individuals. The PhD position is part of the NWO funded project 'DiaGame: serious and personalized game for self-management of diabetes.' The DiaGame project applies learning systems and biomedical simulations to develop a data-driven, personalized serious game that empowers individuals with diabetes to manage the disease they are facing. In order to personalize the game, we will integrate our expertise on processing of personal data collected from health-related smartphone apps into our game platform. The information that this approach yields will be used to personalize the simulation that drives the game. Together, this will allow the use of patient-gathered health data to make the diabetes game a realistic representation of the condition of the gamer. Hence, the goal is to obtain a personalized simulator for a person's metabolism. In this way, DiaGame will change the approach to diabetes care by using data sciences in support of a data-driven personal diabetes games for learning to manage their own disease. Ultimately, this will improve the quality of life for patients and lighten the socio-economic and medical burden that diabetes has. The partners in the project include the Department of Industrial Engineering & Innovation Sciences of TU/e and Maxima Medical Centre in Eindhoven Kind regards Prof. dr. ir.

Dear all Computational Biology Unit at LCSB, University of Luxembourg headed by Prof. Dr. Antonio del Sol is looking for a highly skilled and motivated Postdoctoral fellow to work on an exciting project that aims at developing a computational framework to design cellular conversion strategies for Regenerative Medicine purposes. This framework will be applied to obtain in vitro limbal stem cells, which will be later used for clinical transplantation to treat patients who have lost their vision. In particular, the selected candidate shall develop a computational methodology based on information and graph theories, using single-cell transcriptomics data, to model cell populations dynamics and design strategies for cellular conversion. In addition, he/she will participate in the project management and planning, including the supervision of one Ph.D. student. This is a collaborative project with Professor Michele de Luca’s group at the Center for Regenerative Medicine “Stefano Ferrari”, University of Modena, where the experimental validation of the computational predictions will be conducted.
