Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Accessible MRI
Inside Higher Ed, Baltimore, MD, United States
General Description
The primary work for this fellowship will be in the area of bariatric interventions in a large animal model and include techniques such as MRI‑guided cryoablation, embolization, radio‑embolization, novel intra‑arterial therapeutic approaches, and the development of embolics. CT, X‑ray angiography, PET‑CT, MRI, magnetic particle imaging (MPI), and magnetic hyperthermia (MHT) will be utilized. A secondary aspect may be in the area of radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) for osteosarcoma. The candidate will be involved in all aspects of the studies from simulations/phantoms study design, data acquisition, in‑vivo animal experiments, data analysis, and manuscript writing.
Key Responsibilities
Organize and perform large animal experiments in bariatric interventional radiology (IR) techniques and cardiac catheterization.
Assist with PET‑CT and SPECT‑CT imaging, image segmentation, and data analysis before and after treatment with RPT.
Perform follow‑up image acquisition, typically MRI and cone‑beam CT, as needed.
Acquire, archive, and analyze data using available software tools.
Provide pre‑ and post‑procedure animal care in concert with veterinary staff.
Organize and perform studies in client‑owned dogs with metastatic osteosarcoma.
Submit and present scientific abstracts at national/international meetings and publish manuscripts.
Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of clinicians, researchers, and engineers.
Key Qualifications
Ph.D. or equivalent in Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Material Science, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry/Biology or an MD or equivalent with experience in radiology, surgery, or interventional techniques.
Ability to work independently as well as in a collaborative research environment.
Preferred Skills
Familiarity with simulation software, Microsoft Office, and database management.
Experience in clinical research or basic/translation research or experience in radiological imaging.
Hands‑on experience with X‑ray fluoroscopy or minimally invasive technique.
Experience with radiochemistry or wet chemistry skills.
Strong publication record in relevant fields.
Equal Opportunity Employer
