Location: IU School of Medicine

Department: IUSM - Radiology & Imaging Sciences

Campus: IU School of Medicine Indianapolis

Position Announcement:

The Center for Neuroimaging at Indiana University School of Medicine seeks candidates for a Postdoctoral Fellow in MRI physics. The Roberts Translational Imaging facility is equipped with a state-of-the-art scanner, Bruker BioSpec 9.4T/30 MRI with PET insert and the capability of simultaneous PET and MRI acquisition. This scanner is one of the two in the world and the only one in the US. The facility could serve not only CTSI investigators from IUSM, Purdue University, and IU-Bloomington, but also across the country. The scanner provides an unprecedented opportunity to perform cutting-edge, high-resolution imaging for neuroscience research, musculoskeletal disorders, and renal diseases. Candidates will have opportunities for collaboration with neurophysiological and psychophysical recording facilities, and clinical collaborations with Psychiatrists, Neuroradiologists, Neurologists, Computer Scientists, and Cognitive Neuroscientists.

As the nation's largest medical school, IUSM is committed to being an institution that not only reflects the diversity of the learners we teach and the patient populations we serve, but also pursues the values of diversity, equity and inclusion that inform academic excellence. We desire candidates who enhance our representational diversity, as well as those whose work contributes to equitable and inclusive learning and working environments for our students, staff, and faculty. IUSM strives to take an anti-racist stance, regularly evaluating and updating its policies, procedures, and practices to confer equitable opportunities for contribution and advancement for all members of our community. We invite individuals who will join us in our mission to advance racial equity to transform health and wellbeing for all throughout the state of Indiana.

Basic Qualifications:

Doctorate or Terminal degree is required. The candidates should have a PhD or MD specifically in Medical Physics, Bioengineering, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, or related disciplines. We are looking for applicants who are interested in pulse sequence development, image reconstruction, and imaging data analysis. Programming skills in Matlab, Python, C/C++, or parallelization are desirable. Publication record and skills in imaging data processing with software tools (e.g. FSL, ANTs) may play a significant role in candidate selection.
