We are seeking a highly motivated CMR Applications Researcher (postgraduate or postdoctoral) to join our team in the Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research (OCMR). You will be a member of the Advanced Cardiovascular Image Analysis Group, reporting to Prof. Stefan Piechnik (OU) and Dr. Margarita Gorodezky (GE). Beside translation and validation of the relevant technologies, you will provide guidance to other members of the research group, including postdocs, research assistants, technicians, and PhD and project students. The position is advertised for up to two years, and you will be encouraged to apply for further funding to continue the multi-centre collaborative work to explore the potentially significant impact of the technologies in the foreseeable future.

 

Your responsibilities will include implementing existing and new MR imaging and analysing methods for quantitative imaging approaches on the clinical GE MRI systems. This includes programming, troubleshooting and validation of acquisition and post-processing methods. You will also collect phantom and human data on clinical MR systems, maintain accurate records, and undertake any appropriate analysis of data as required for this and any related research projects.

 

You are required to hold a relevant degree together with relevant experience in MRI. Experience or training in programming in MRI context, preferably on GE MRI platforms would also be expected. Experience of independently managing discrete areas of a research project would be desirable.

 

This is a full time appointment on a fixed term contract for 2 years and you will be based at the Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research (OCMR), Level 0, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, OX3 9DU.
