A three-year Postdoctoral Research Fellowship is available in a collaborative H2020 project entitled “OPTIPATH – Adaptive OPTIcal metasurfaces for real-time, label-free and non-destructive multidimensional digital PATHology”. This research will be undertaken at the interface of the Quantum Bio-Photonics Group in the Aston Institute of Photonics Technologies and the Department of Mechatronics and Biomedical Engineering (MBE) in the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences, Aston University, UK.

This is a joint research programme capitalising on the knowledge and expertise of the 7 partners across of Europe in the modern photonics, bio photonics and pathology. The primary objective of the project is to develop a non-destructive, label-free, real-time, 3D imaging technique for tissue samples, enabling live histopathological assessment during surgical and oncological treatments. This approach aims to provide a multidimensional pathology sensing paradigm by utilizing highly resolved and adaptive structured light with Orbital Angular Momentum, combined with 3D polarization and spectral information.

As the successful applicant you will be responsible for conducting independent research focused on developing theoretical formalism and a Monte Carlo-based computational tool to simulate the propagation of complex structured light carrying Orbital Angular Momentum through turbid, tissue-like scattering media with complex internal structures. You will be working in collaboration with the other project partner to design and the development of histopathological 2D/3D tissue imaging system utilizing vectorial structured light and confocal scanning system.

You will have a PhD and research experience in Monte Carlo modelling of light propagation in tissue-like scattering medium, structured light with Orbital Angular Momentum, polarization optics and laser speckles.

The position will be based in the Aston Institute of Photonic Technologies and will report to Prof I. Meglinski.

For further information about this position, please contact Prof. I. Meglinski via email at i.meglinski@aston.ac.uk.

We invite applications from highly motivated and experienced Research Fellows to join the Aston Institute of Photonic Technologies (AiPT) and contribute to a HORIZON-EU-funded project focusing on sensing in advanced fibre-optic communication systems and AI-driven event detection. You will be responsible for leading and implementing key tasks across work packages that address sensing in the deployed fibre-optic networks and real-time event classification, data fusion techniques, and infrastructure monitoring for large-scale fibre-optic systems.

As the successful applicant you will be responsible for leading and coordinating key tasks across multiple work packages that span the entire project lifecycle, from the specification and design of large-scale fibre-optic systems to their experimental validation and demonstration. A particular focus will be on developing AI-based algorithms for event detection and classification, combining state-of-the-art machine learning models with real-world data from diverse environments such as submarine and terrestrial cables and railway infrastructure. You will also contribute to cutting-edge research in data fusion techniques by integrating various sensing modalities - involving, for example, state of polarisation monitoring and distributed acoustic sensing - to improve accuracy and performance in real-time decision-making systems.

You will lead efforts in infrastructure monitoring, coordinating large-scale field trials in collaboration with industry partners, and ensuring the system's performance is rigorously tested and validated under real-world conditions. This will involve overseeing both laboratory-based assessments and field installations, and refining testing protocols.

You will possess a doctorate in photonics or closely related field, or relevant industrial experience.

The AiPT is one of the world’s leading photonics research centres. The Institute pursues a diverse range of device-and-system-level topics at the leading edge of technology. The key research areas include high-speed optical transmission and processing, in fibre-based optical devices and components, nonlinear photonics, and in fibre optic sensors. Applicants are welcome to join in the a vibrant team of researchers guided by world-leading AiPT cultivates a supportive and inclusive working environment where academics, post-doctoral researchers and students cooperate to overcome major scientific challenges in a welcoming and collegial atmosphere.

Informal enquiries should be directed to Prof. S. K. Turitsyn (s.k.turitsyn@aston.ac.uk).
