Researchers at the Universities of Adelaide and Melbourne are conducting research aimed at the prevention of musculoskeletal injury and cardiac arrhythmia in athletic horses. Together with an industry partner we have been successful in attracting ARC-linkage funding and are looking for a graduate, with relevant equine experience interested in undertaking a Doctor of Philosophy, to work on this project.
This project will address the need for predicting and preventing catastrophic and career limiting limb injuries and cardiac arrhythmias in racehorses due to over (or under) training. Two PhD scholarships are available, one through the University of Adelaide, focussing on the cardiac aspects of the project and a 2nd focussing on musculoskeletal aspects (through the University of Melbourne). The 2 candidates will work closely together and the role will involve collecting data from GPS, movement sensors, heart rate and ECG of racehorses in training, and identifying early signs of lameness and arrhythmia. Then the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms to detect early evidence of the development of musculoskeletal injury and cardiac arrhythmias will be investigated. The successful candidate will be trained in the use of lameness locator and ECG monitoring equipment. The partner in this project, Alerte Equine Science, is a company at the forefront of applying artificial intelligence technology to the prevention of racehorse injury and also works on rhythm abnormality detection in human patients.
The project will suit candidates with a veterinary or animal science degree, with some experience working with horses, particularly in the racing industry.
The Scholarship is funded by an ARC-Linkage Grant to support a full-time PhD student to conduct research into the identification and risk factors for cardiac arrhythmia in Thoroughbred racehorses.
Payment per year: $34,013
Duration: Up to 3 years
