The Department of Neurology at the University of New
Mexico (http://hsc.unm.edu/som/neuro/lab/)
has an opening for a postdoctoral researcher to develop parallel
echo-planar MR spectroscopic imaging methods using large scale RF array
coils.
NIH funded research to develop metabolite mapping in breast cancer for disease staging and treatment monitoring is conducted in collaboration with the Cancer Center (http://cancer.unm.edu/) and the breast MRI/MRS program at the University of Minnesota's Center for Magnetic Resonance Research (http://www.cmrr.umn.edu). Development of metabolite mapping in brain for applications in Psychiatry and Neurology is carried out in a multi-center collaboration (http://hsc.unm.edu/som/neuro/lab/pepsi.shtml). We are seeking candidates who are interested in parallel imaging, pulse sequence development, and spectroscopic data analysis. The candidate will work in an interdisciplinary team of clinicians and basic scientists and have access to state-of-the-art MRI and computational facilities. The successful candidate should be creative, able to work as part of a multi-disciplinary group with physicians, physicists, engineers and computer scientists, and should have good English communication skills. Experience with both high field MR spectroscopy and high-speed parallel MRI techniques, and a strong interest in medicine/biology will be preferred. Preferred qualifications for this position include: Qualified candidates should submit their CV and three
references to: Albuquerque offers excellent quality of life, beautiful scenery with mountains nearby and plenty of opportunities for outdoor sports, such as hiking and skiing. The University of New Mexico is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer and Educator. Qualified women and minorities are strongly encouraged to apply. |
