Centre for Doctoral Studies in Digital Twins for Healthcare

Our newly established Centre for Doctoral Training on Advanced Engineering on Personalised Surgery & Intervention (AE-PSI) offers PhD projects on:

  • Smart Surgical Instruments and Active Implants, including surgical robotics, advanced imaging systems, and human/machine implantable interfaces.
    • Surgical Data Science, including creation of clinical decision support systems and interventional imaging analysis.
      • Digital Surgical Twins, including patient specific models that allow for in silico training and outcome prediction.

        • These scholarships cater for students requiring further technical skills development through an MRes, and for students that can directly embark on PhD research. Apply now for 2025/26 entry (applications close 5pm, 11 December 2024)

        EPSRC CDT Advanced Engineering in Personalised Surgery & Intervention

The Centre for Doctoral Training in Medical Imaging provides a comprehensive interdisciplinary PhD programme in Medical Imaging, specifically designed to meet the challenges in healthcare and medical imaging. The Centre builds on strong existing collaborations between King's and Imperial College London, including substantial joint grant funding, joint publications and current joint-supervision. The CDT is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).

With complementary strengths in basic physical sciences, engineering and clinical translation, the Centre has links with key industrial partners and close strategic and geographical links with St Thomas’ Hospital, a top-rated teaching hospital, where the Centre is based.
