About us
King’s College London is one of the world’s leading universities, renowned for its excellence in research, education, and clinical innovation. The Sleep and Brain Plasticity Centre, based within the Department of Neuroimaging, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (IoPPN), is at the forefront of cutting-edge sleep research, integrating neuroscience, computational modelling, and clinical applications to advance our understanding of sleep-related brain processes.
A key focus of our centre is the development and refinement of sleep EEG research pipelines, enabling high-resolution analyses of sleep architecture, neural oscillations, and cognitive function.
About the role
King’s College London invites applications for a highly skilled specialist to join our research team at the Sleep and Brain Plasticity Centre. The successful candidate will play a critical role in executing and finalising the bespoke SleepCity EEG project pipeline.
You will contribute to the SleepCity EEG project, ensuring the successful execution and optimisation of our bespoke EEG research pipeline.
This position requires expertise in sleep EEG processing and analysis, with a strong background in non-linear EEG methods, spectral analysis, and network-based approaches to sleep dynamics. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in Python programming and be proficient in handling large EEG datasets using publicly available polysomnography (PSG) analysis software.
The role involves developing and optimising the EEG analysis pipeline, overseeing the successful analysis and management of large-scale sleep EEG datasets, and ensuring seamless coordination with key collaborators.
This is a unique opportunity to contribute to pioneering research in sleep neurophysiology and EEG signal analysis within a leading academic institution. The position is ideal for a researcher with a strong computational background.
This post will be offered on a full-time, fixed term contract for 12 months.
About you
* Expertise in sleep EEG analysis, including spectral analysis, non-linear EEG methods, and network-based approaches to sleep dynamics.
* Proficiency in Python programming, with experience in EEG signal processing and computational modelling of sleep architecture.
* Demonstrated experience working with large-scale EEG datasets, including pre-processing, artefact correction, and statistical analysis.
* Familiarity with polysomnography (PSG) data analysis, including publicly available EEG analysis software.
* Background in computational physics, neuroscience, or biomedical engineering.
* Ability to work with remote server-based computational workflows.
* Proven ability to manage research projects independently.
* Strong collaborative skills, with experience coordinating with interdisciplinary teams.
* Track record of contributing to scientific publications.
* Experience with advanced EEG connectivity analyses.
* Knowledge of programming languages beyond Python.
* Familiarity with machine learning approaches for EEG data analysis.
