This PhD is embedded in the HEARTwise engineering team at TUMCREATE Singapore and is centered on the actibelt® wearable technology platform - a body-worn 3D accelerometer system with a mature clinical track record, an established algorithm library, and over 64 years of recorded patient data. The core scientific contribution expected is the development, validation, and clinical deployment of actibelt-based mobility analysis in HF patients.

The candidate will engage with open methodological questions - including how to extract richer clinical information from inertial data, how to improve reference data acquisition for algorithm development, and what mobility-based signatures may carry predictive value for HF decompensation - as well as with the translational challenge of deploying these methods in a real clinical setting.
