The research group of Dr. Sotiras (www.asotiras.com), a part of the Electronic Radiology Lab at Washington University in St. Louis ( https://wustl.edu), is currently seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral research associate with a strong research record in computational neuroscience, computational image analysis, computer vision, or machine learning, who is interested in solving important clinical problems. The lab is a diverse and interdisciplinary team whose research focuses on advancing imaging informatics technology and developing advanced computational techniques for quantitative image analysis.
The successful candidate will lead or participate in projects developing, implementing and applying machine learning algorithms for the analysis and interpretation of medical images and related clinical data. More specifically, the successful candidate will develop and apply computational and analytical techniques to quantify morphology and function from multi-modal imaging data, analyze the relationship between brain imaging markers and cognition or clinical status, and integrate this information into predictive tools for patient-specific diagnosis and prognosis with the goal of improving our understanding of brain structure in health and disease. Applications of interest include multi-modal neuroimaging studies in neurology and psychiatry. The successful candidate will have a unique opportunity to work closely with clinical investigators and will have ample opportunities to present research methods and scientific findings at national and international conferences, and to publish results in academic journals.
The Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology (https://www.mir.wustl.edu/) encompasses a multi-disciplinary research center, home to more than 200 research faculty, postdocs, and graduate students, with a vibrant culture of collegiality (e.g., journal groups, weekly seminars, etc). Researchers study the human brain using a number of biomedical imaging modalities, such as MRI, PET, optical imaging and microscopy and collaborate with academic institutions and industry across the world. MIR is considered a premier biomedical imaging center in the world and is a great place to grow as a scientist, and build a highly visible career at the intersection of neuroscience, medicine, and engineering.
