The Buffalo Neuroimaging Analysis Center is seeking a skilled
postdoctoral fellow to design, implement, and apply existing and novel
MRI analysis approaches in neurological disease. Our group studies
structural and functional changes in diseases including multiple
sclerosis, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and stroke.
Candidates must have a passion for creative and independent research, as
well as a recent PhD in one of the following fields: neuroimaging
analysis, biomedical engineering, mathematics, statistics/machine
learning, computer science, or a related area. The ideal candidate
should have prior experience with MRI image analysis, including
familiarity with software packages like FSL, FreeSurfer, or SPM.
Experience working with high-level languages like Python or Matlab are
also preferred.
The candidate will be expected to split time approximately 50% between
clinical research and experimental research. Clinical research
activities will include development and maintenance of software analysis
pipelines, implementation of new and existing techniques for image
analysis, efficiency/throughput optimization, and improvements in
precision and accuracy. Experimental research activities will focus more
on structural and functional connectivity analysis, design of novel
algorithms for precise morphological assessments, and design of
techniques for analyzing novel MRI contrasts.
The BNAC provides a rich environment to foster academic and professional
development, including a variety of experts with skill in fields
including medicine, MRI physics, computer science, and machine learning.
The BNAC also has research access to a 3T Toshiba human scanner and a
9.4T Bruker small animal scanner, and extensive computational resources
including a Linux cluster and large-scale storage.
This position is full-time with a one year initial appointment,
renewable annually based on performance.
Please email mgdwyer(a)buffalo.edu <mailto:mgdwyer@buffalo.edu> to apply,
and include a CV and at least two references.
