LGSSE Studentships
University of Limerick – Lero Graduate School in Software Engineering
The Lero Graduate School in Software Engineering (LGSSE), the main education initiative of Lero – the Irish Software Engineering Research Centre, offers a four-year PhD program provided jointly by the four leading Irish Universities involved in Lero (Dublin City University, Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin and University of Limerick). The LGSSE program cycle begins in September 2010. The first year includes taught modules in research theory and practice, as well as technical software engineering modules. Also during the first year the candidate will prepare a research proposal that will be the basis for a three-year individual research project. In this way LGSSE seeks to combine the best features of the European and US models of PhD education.

Project Summary:
PhD and Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship positions are available in the UCD diffusion tensor imaging (UCDTI) research group. The research will
focus on determining the relationship between myocardial fibre orientations and cardiac wall motion through registration of tagged Magnetic Resonance
in-vivo data and ex-vivo Diffusion Tensor Imaging data. The goal of this work is to understand cardiac problems on a structural level by combining imaging
techniques that reveal heart fibre orientation with techniques that reveal the broad spatio-temporal dynamics of the beating heart.
