Job Title: MCIN Image Processing Specialist
Job Code: IPS201503
Application Deadline: 15 May 2015
Organization: McGill University
Group: McGill Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (MCIN)
Introduction:
The McGill Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (MCIN ;
http://www.mcin-cnim.ca), directed by Dr. Alan Evans at the Montreal
Neurological Institute (MNI ; http://www.mni.mcgill.ca), is seeking
candidates for two positions in the area of multi-modal, multi-dimensional
image processing.
The MCIN is part of the McConnell Brain Imaging Centre (BIC ;
http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca), a major brain mapping environment with
access to various scanning facilities, HPC platforms and data analytic
pipelines. Research at MCIN is focused on (i) structural and functional
connectomics, (ii) multi-modal neuroinformatics and high-performance
computing (HPC), and (iii) neuroimaging applications in neurodevelopment
and neurodegeneration research.
Candidates with a strong brain image processing background are invited to
apply for two positions:
1) Post-doctoral fellow: to work on image-processing challenges associated
with structural imaging in early neurodevelopment.
2) Research associate: to develop high-level image-processing solutions, in
both structural and functional domains, that have wide application.
The candidates are required to have a PhD in computer science, engineering,
applied physics or mathematics. The positions demand strong programming
skills in C, Perl, or Python. Prior experience in at least one of the areas
of image processing, digital signal processing, computational modeling and
statistics is essential. Preferably, candidates will have experience in
applying computational solutions to current neuroscience research (such as
distributed neuroimaging analyses, fusion of genetics and different types
of neuroimaging or behavioural phenotypes, and expertise in visualization
of multimodal neuroscience data). The candidates are expected to work
independently, be team-oriented and participate in providing solutions for
clinical and basic neuroscience research, within the guidelines of the
software engineering department. The candidates are expected to write and
publish their work.
How to apply:
Please, forward a statement of research interests, your CV, names of three
references and a representative example of your publication or software
tools to <[log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]>>. Please, include in
the subject line “*Job Code IPS201503*”.
The position is funded for 12 months after a three-month probation, with
possibility of extension. Salary is commensurate with experience, and the
employees are entitled to pension and insurance, according to McGill
University’s policies.
Direct hire only. Please, no agencies, no phone, no fax and no other
inquiries. We thank all applicants for their interest and wish to advise
that only those candidates selected for an interview will be acknowledged
and contacted. McGill University is an equal opportunity employer.
