Fwd: Senior Research Associate (at the University of Cambridge)

The University of Cambridge, Department of Clinical Neurosciences are looking to recruit a senior research associate* to join the Stroke Research Team. You will play a central role in establishing and developing a major programme of stroke MRI research at Cambridge which focuses particularly on the imaging of patients with ischaemic white matter disease. You will be integrally involved setting up a number of new MRI projects, and also will have access to large existing multimodal MRI datasets which provide an excellent resource for developing novel image analysis techniques and correlating MRI markers with cognitive and clinical parameters. In addition to supervising clinical fellows, other staff involved with image analysis and PhD students, you will be encouraged to develop your own areas of research within stroke imaging and to apply for grants in these areas. You will have a PhD in a relevant area and experience in MR image analysis which ideally should involve brain imaging. Individuals with previous MR experience outside stroke are encouraged to apply and training can be given in the clinical aspects relating to stroke. *NB: The status of Senior Research Associate is awarded on the basis of individual merit and may be awarded to the successful candidate if approved by the Faculty Board of the Cambridge School of Clinical Medicine.
