We are a non-profit organization building an infrastructure to develop, manufacture, distribute and operate remote-controlled ventilators and oxygen concentrators that will also gather high-resolution treatment data for scientific research and treatment optimization.

To address the critical lack of highly qualified COVID-19 caregivers we plan to include as many automation features for the ventilator, from automatic first aid response over automated weaning trials to diagnosis and treatment recommendation. This requires a wide array of Artificial intelligence methods such as basic decision trees but also supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques where the machine analyses all the available data and clusters patients into specific groups and identifies those who received consistently effective treatment.

Another goal of this is to create a disease model that can be used to simulate ventilation patterns and can be used to allow for interactive training of fresh respiratory therapists specifically for COVID-19. Such a model would continue to have value beyond the pandemic and could bring valuable insight into the physiology of the lung.

We are looking for a true expert who is aware of the current consensus on the fundamental physics and biological processes behind the disease but is also capable to expand his horizon to what this kind of analysis of data might bring. That person would be working closely with an AI expert to identify suitable approaches to the opportunities described above.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of the world's medical workforce fighting COVID-19

Description

Every Year 4.2 million children under 5 are desperate for oxygen. 800,000 mothers lose their child every year because of Pneumonia, a lung disease often requiring oxygen. This toll is higher than for any other disease in the world. What hospitals in the US and Europe consider one of the most essential treatments is not available for many. The problem, oxygen concentrators keep breaking down in the high humidity, temperature and dust environments, burn through during energy spikes when the power comes back online after one of the many outages or simply breaks and nobody knows how to repair it.

We have set out to change this and develop an oxygen concentrator that will make public health investments much more effective. Our first calculations suggest that we could lower the cost of a child's life by as much as two-thirds. Due to our organization working with volunteers we can reduce the development cost but bringing a medical device to market is hard work and we expect that you meet the requirements and are responsive and transparent with your skills and availability. If our mission sounds important and exciting to you, learn more about us on www.ardenmed.com and apply for one of our open positions through our platform! http://jira.ardenmed.com/plugins/servlet/loginfreeRedirMain?portalid=16&request=136
