PhD Position in Electroanatomical Mapping for Ventricular Tachycardia
Develop and validate advanced 3D cardiac mapping modules to improve catheter ablation procedures for complex ventricular arrhythmias.
Best for:Best for master's graduates in engineering, biomedical physics, or data science with a strong interest in cardiac electrophysiology and MATLAB programming.
Overview
This doctoral research project at the Université de Lorraine focuses on validating innovative software modules designed for integration into the Carto 3 cardiac mapping system. Working at the intersection of biomedical engineering, data science, and electrophysiology, the PhD candidate will help improve methods for identifying critical isthmuses in patients suffering from ventricular tachycardia. The role involves processing clinical and electrophysiological data to make ablation procedures safer, faster, and more precise. The successful candidate will collaborate closely with clinical researchers and engineers within a structured academic environment.
