Postdoctoral Fellowship in Cancer Imaging
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA
Posted: 19 May 2009

 
The Department of Radiation Oncology at the University of Michigan has two immediate opening positions for post-doctoral fellowship in oncology imaging. The candidates must have a Ph.D. degree in physics, medical physics, biomedical engineering, or related field. Significant experience in imaging processing, dynamic contrast enhanced, diffusion tensor MR imaging will be preferred. Post-doctoral fellows will have an opportunity to participate in the imaging studies for cancer treatment response and normal tissue toxicity in the Radiation Oncology Department, and in various research projects. The scientific activity will include, but not be limited to, developing new imaging methodologies, characterizing tumor responses and normal tissue changes during and after radiation therapy, and developing algorithms for quantification of functional images for clinical trials.

Post-doctoral fellows will work with faculty members and staff within Radiation Oncology (including MRI physicists, radiation physicists, radiation oncologists, statisticians, computer programming analysts), and also collaborate closely with scientists and clinicians in Radiology, Engineering and Statistics. Both positions are funded by NIH grants, and renewable yearly.

The University of Michigan is a Non-Discriminatory/Affirmative Action Institution committed to cultural diversity.
