Two fully-funded PhD positions are available in the Department of Computing Science at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU Compute) on the Horizon 2020 TEAM training network (Technology EnAbled Mental health for young people).
There has been considerable research and many commercial products for improving physical health. However, the use of technology to support mental health lags far behind. The aim of the training network is to deliver new applications and technologies that support rapid, large-scale early assessment, prevention and treatment of mental health issues in young people.
As part of the TEAM project there are two studentships at DTU Compute:
Applicants should have excellent experience, enthusiasm and skills in the areas of software architecture and engineering, ubiquitous computing, human-computer interaction, and computer science. Applicants must hold a good Master’s degree in a relevant discipline.
You will be based in the world-class computer science research section as part of the Copenhagen Center for Health Technology (CACHET), working in an excellent team of PhD students and Postdocs. There will be close collaborations with the other TEAM project partners and you will have the opportunity to work with them and the clinical organisations, which are part of the consortium. There are nine project partners, one from industry, two not-for-profit healthcare providers and six academic institutions (including two university hospitals), across five countries.
