Postdoctoral Positions in Medical Imaging

Highlights:
1. Postdoctoral positions are available in IDEA lab (https://www.med.unc.edu/bric/ideagroup ), UNC-Chapel Hill, NC.

2. Position 1 (One Position on Breast MRI Analysis): The successful candidate will be expected to develop novel enhancement segmentation and classification methods for significantly improving the specificity of dynamic MRI in detecting and diagnosing breast cancer.

3. The successful candidate should have a strong background on Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, or Computer Science, preferably with emphasis on image registration, segmentation, and classification. Experiences on deformable registration, adaptive segmentation (i.e., graph cut), and non-linear classification are highly desirable.

4. Position 2 (One Position on Brain Image Segmentation): The successful candidate should have a strong background on Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, or Computer Science, preferably with emphasis on image analysis, or computer vision.

5. Experience on medical image segmentation and analysis is highly desirable. People with machine learning background are particularly encouraged to apply.

6. Knowledge on neuroscience and programming background (good command of LINUX, C and C++, scripting, and Matlab) are desirable.

7. The research topic will be the development and validation of tissue segmentation and subcortical segmentation methods for brain image analysis.

8. Position 3 (One Position on Brain Image Registration): The successful candidate should have a strong background on Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, or Computer Science, preferably with emphasis on image analysis, or computer vision.

9. Experience on medical image registration and analysis is highly desirable.

10. People with machine learning background are particularly encouraged to apply.

11. Knowledge on neuroscience and programming background (good command of LINUX, C and C++, scripting, and Matlab) are desirable.

12. The research topic will be the development and validation of 3D, 4D, and group-wise image registration methods for brain image analysis.

13. Position 4 (One Position on Network Analysis): Applications are invited for a postdoctoral fellowship to develop and apply network analysis methods on brain MR images, e.g., structural MRI, functional MRI, and DTI. Candidates should have a doctoral degree in Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, or related field; excellent interpersonal, organizational, and oral and written English communication skills.

14. The successful candidates will be part of a diverse group including radiologists, psychologists, physicists, biostatistician, and computer scientists, and will build upon the group's previous work on medical image analysis.

15. Interested candidate, please email resume to Dr. Dinggang Shen (dgshen@med.unc.edu ).
