POSITION: MRI/MRS Postdoctoral Fellow
The Center for Advanced Imaging Research (CAIR) of the Medical University
of South Carolina in Charleston is looking for two more postdoctoral
fellows with solid technical backgrounds for work in MR imaging and/or
spectroscopy. The center has access to a new 1.5T Philips Intera MR
scanner and a 1.5T Picker EDGE (soon to be replaced by a second new
Philips 1.5T), and a Philips 3T system will be installed in the Spring of
2002. All three scanners have or will have single-shot EPI and 1H
spectroscopy capability and be equipped with multichannel
stimulation/monitoring systems for "functional" imaging. A dedicated MR
lab has six (6) Sun SPARCstations, a DEC ALPHA and multiple Macintosh
computers available for image/spectra processing.
Projects involve MR physics and/or data analysis related to MR image- and
spectroscopy-based determinations of brain function, including studies of
diffusion, perfusion, and quantitative flow/motion. The individual would
be expected to help with one or more of a number of funded studies in
which transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) OR vagus nerve stimulation
(VNS) OR deep brain stimulation (DBS) is combined with fMRI to stimulate
and simultaneously monitor brain response. There is a good possibility of
this position leading to a junior faculty position.
Charleston, located on the South Carolina coast, is one of America's
oldest cities. Its charming historic town center is a popular tourist
stop with activities throughout the year made accessible by the city's
relatively small size.
Interested persons should send a CV, a letter describing their research
interests and the names of three references to the above address. The
Medical University of South Carolina is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
