Postdoctoral Research Assistant in 3D Reconstruction with Vision and Ultrasound

We are seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Research Assistant to join the Dynamic Robot Systems Group, part of the Oxford Robotics Institute and the Department of Engineering Science, University of Oxford. The post is funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) and is fixed term for 24 months.

The researcher will develop multi-sensor 3D reconstruction algorithms to fuse vision and ultrasound. The goal is to reconstruct boney anatomy (e.g. knees and hips) using robotic mapping techniques. Research will be carried out as part of a new collaborative project involving Oxford’s Department of Orthopaedics (NDORMS) as well as collaborators in Bristol and Cardiff.

You should have a PhD/DPhil (or be near completion) in robotics, computer vision, machine learning or a closely related field. You have an excellent academic track record in topics relevant to robot perception - visual inertial odometry (VIO), mapping (SLAM) and 3D reconstruction. Experience with ultra-sound would be desirable but is not expected.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Prof Maurice Fallon (mfallon@robots.ox.ac.uk).

Only applications received before midday on the 8th September 2025 can be considered. You will be required to upload a covering letter/supporting statement, (describing how past experience fit with the advertised position), CV and the details of two referees as part of your online application.
