Several postdoctoral positions are available in IDEA lab
(
https://www.med.unc.edu/bric/ideagroup), UNC-Chapel Hill, NC.
Position 1 (Deformable Segmentation): The successful candidate should
have a strong background on Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, or
Computer Science, preferably with emphasis on image feature extraction,
shape representation, and shape statistics. Experience on medical image
segmentation using deformable surface, level sets, and graph cut is
highly desirable. People with machine learning background on image
features and shape statistics are particularly encouraged to apply.
Strong knowledge on programming (good command of LINUX, C and C++,
scripting, and Matlab) are desirable. The research topic will be the
development and validation of statistical deformable segmentation
methods for prostate and brain.
Position 2 (Brain Image Registration): The successful candidate should
have a strong background on Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, or
Computer Science, preferably with emphasis on image analysis, or
computer vision. Experience on medical image registration and analysis
is highly desirable. People with group-wise registration or 4D
registration are particularly encouraged to apply. Knowledge on
neuroscience and programming background (good command of LINUX, C and
C++, scripting, and Matlab) are desirable. The research topic will be
the development and validation of 3D, 4D, and group-wise image
registration methods for brain image analysis.
The successful candidates will be part of a diverse group including
radiologists, psychologists, physicists, biostatistician, and computer
scientists, and will build upon the group's previous work on medical
image analysis. If interested, please email resume to Dr. Dinggang Shen
(dgshen(a)med.unc.edu <mailto:dgshen@med.unc.edu>).
