Job Description:
Responsibilities:
The Computational Biomarker Imaging Group (CBIG) has an open
postdoctoral positions. CBIG's mission is to act as a translational
catalyst between computational science and cancer imaging
research.
Work in our group focuses on developing innovative image analysis,
machine learning, AI and data science methodologies for
multimodality imaging, and also on incorporating such methods into
clinically relevant applications. Most of our work to date has been
on breast and lung cancer imaging, while more recently expanding
more broadly in oncologic imaging and molecular imaging
applications.
A priority area is integrating imaging with genomic biomarkers
towards integrated precision diagnostics for prevention and therapy
for cancer. Applications focusing on radiomics and deep learning
are also a priority.
Postdoctoral Position Qualifications:
We are seeking highly motivated individuals with excellent academic
track-record, including first-author publications in peer-reviewed
journals. Successful candidates should have, or be in the process
of completing, a PhD (or equivalent) in Biomedical, Electrical or
Computer Engineering, Computer and Information Science, Applied
Mathematics, Statistics/Biostatistics, Bioinformatics, or related
field.
Ideal applicants should have a background on biomedical image
analysis, computer vision, pattern recognition and/or machine
learning. Experience with Bioinformatics is a plus. Proficiency in
quantitative analytical methods and computer programming (e.g.,
Python, C/C ) is essential. Experience with medical image analysis
(e.g., MRI, CT, X-ray, Ultrasound) and related statistical methods
and software packages (e.g., ITK C/C libraries, R/SPSS) is desired
(but not necessary). Experience with Deep Learning is also ideal
(e.g., TensorFlow, Keras, PyTorch packages, etc.).
Applicants should demonstrate excellent oral and written
communication skills, and the ability to work effectively
independently and as part of a multidisciplinary research team.
Salary range is from $70,000 -$77,000. The salary of the finalist
