Postdoctoral/Research Assistant positions in medical neuroimaging with a particular focus on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are available in the Neuroimaging Laboratory, Magna Grecia University/CNR, Catanzaro, Italy. One position for a period of five years, four positions for a period of one year, with possible extension to a second year. Research in the host laboratory focuses on the development and application of quantitative MRI methods, including advanced image processing and mathematical modeling. Current projects in the laboratory include the development of methods for acquisition, processing and analysis of images from multiple modalities with applications toward the elucidation of structure, function and physiology at the tissue level, with particular focus on the brain. The laboratory is staffed by physicians, psychologists, physicists and others focused on translational use of MRI. Anticipated activities entail the further development, implementation, validation and maintenance of imaging techniques as well as large-scale image data processing and analysis. Candidates are expected to actively participate in translational studies applying the above methodology to patients affected by neurodegenerative disorders. Candidates are expected to have an advanced degree in any field related to neroscience (physics, mathematics, informatics, engineering, neurology, radiology, or psychology). Candidates with documented experience in medical research are preferred. Experience in scientific programming related to medical imaging is a plus. Fluency in English language is essential. Applicants are requested to submit their curriculum vitae along with two letters of recommendation as attachments to email.
