Positions open: Postdoctoralresearchers, visiting scholars, and PhD students The MR center at theDepartment of Radiology, Lewis Katz School of Medicine, Temple Universityinvites highly motivated applicants for three different opening positions: postdoctoral researcher, visiting scholar,and PhD student. The two post-docpositions will be fully paid by NIH grants. PhD program applicants with GPA>3 will have a high chance to get fullscholarship from the University. Otherwise they will be paid from internal orexternal research grants. The center has a researchdedicated Siemens 3T MR scanner and high performance computing facilityincluding 3 GPU servers. Another research 3T MR scanner (Prisma) is also fullyaccessible in the main campus of Temple University. The research directions inthe center include MR pulse development, image reconstruction, neuroimagingsignal processing, and translational studies in Alzheimer’s Disease and drugaddiction. Applicants should have strong backgroundin Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, orBiomedical Engineering. Post-doc and visiting scholars must have an advanceddegree (Ph.D.) in one of these fields. Ideal candidates for the post-docpositions should have experience in oneof the following categories: 1) fMRI, structural MRI including diffusion MRIdata processing using one the mainframe software packages (FSL, SPM, FreeSurferetc), 2) MR pulse programming, 3) image reconstruction, 4) machine learningincluding deep learning. Skills with C/C++ will be optional but Matlab orPython experience will be the minimum. The candidates are also expected to havegood communication and writing skills. Knowledge about longitudinal analysis willbe a plus for the fMRI related position. Post-docs will have a high potentialof career development in the center which is expected to expand in the next fewyears. PhD program applicants will be housed in the Department of Electricaland Computing Engineering, School of Engineering, Temple University. The centerhas close collaborations with elite research groups at the University ofPennsylvania which is 15 minutes away in Philadelphia by subway.
