SaberLab, Centre for Medical Informatics at the Usher Institute within The University of Edinburgh is looking for a research assistant to contribute to analysis of cognitive load and non-technical skills (NTS) in Critical Care Air Transport team simulated medical evacuation data.
The Opportunity:
SaberLab is a multidisciplinary research group, led by Professor Steven Yule, based at Usher Institute, University of Edinburgh. Our research focus is to inform training, optimise performance and team dynamics, and enhance patient safety in high stakes clinical environments. Our approach uses sensor technology, machine learning, simulation studies and advanced video analytics to enhance team performance under pressure in high-risk and/or low resource environments, such as surgery, military and space medicine. The research team comprises behavioural and sports psychologists, clinicians and data scientists.
We are currently recruiting a full-time research assistant to join our team. The research assistant will conduct qualitative and quantitative coding of datasets, and synthesis of behavioural observations of a simulated medical evacuation dataset. This project is part of a larger study in collaboration with the US AirForce, University of Colorado, and Harvard Medical School.
We will also consider requests for hybrid working (on a non-contractual basis) that combines a mix of remote and regular (weekly) on-campus working. The Usher Institute expects a minimum of 40% on campus working.
Informal enquiries may be directed to Dr Claire Davies Tyler, Research Manager (Claire.davies.tyler@ed.ac.uk) or Prof Steven Yule, Principal Investigator (steven.yule@ed.ac.uk).
Your skills and attributes for success:
• Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology, Human Factors, Behavioural Science or related field
• Previous research experience
• Proactive and ability to work independently
• Excellent ability to communicate research findings
• Experience of writing research publications
