Brain MRI

The Brain Imaging and Analysis Center at Duke University School of Medicine is seeking two post-doctoral researchers with expertise in MR acquisition and analysis methodologies to develop and apply high-resolution diffusion MRI to identify early biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. The successful candidates will utilize the Center's 3T and 7T MRI scanners, compute cluster, and storage to delineate brain microstructures from mice to men. Applicants should have a recent doctoral degree and relevant experience, and should send their application materials to [email protected].

Post-Doctoral Positions in High-Resolution Diffusion MRI


and Applications in Alzheimer’s Disease
The Brain Imaging and Analysis Center (BIAC), in conjunction with Departments of
Neurology and Radiology, at Duke University School of Medicine invites applications for
two post-doctoral research positions. In particular, we are seeking motivated
researchers with in-depth expertise in MR acquisition (e.g. pulse sequence
programming) and analysis (e.g. machine learning) methodologies to develop and apply
high-resolution diffusion MRI to delineate brain microstructures, from mice to men, and
identify early biomarkers in Alzheimer’s disease. A recent doctoral degree in relevant
fields is required.

The BIAC, established in 1998, is an inter-departmental research facility directly under


the Dean’s Office at the School of Medicine at Duke University. BIAC currently houses
19 core faculty research labs focused on imaging methodology developments and their
applications in basic and translational neurosciences, and also serves as a central
neuroimaging resource for Duke University. BIAC operates two dedicated 3T whole-
body research MRI scanners (Signa Premier UltraHigh Performance 3T and MR750 3T,
both by GE Healthcare). In collaboration with Radiology, BIAC also help manage a 7T
(30cm bore) Bruker preclinical MRI scanner. Additional preclinical scanners (7T and
9.4T) are available at the Center for In Vivo Microscopy within the Department of
Radiology. A state-of-the-art RF lab is available at BIAC for making specialized imaging
hardware such as RF coils. BIAC's computing facilities consist of a 1536-core Hitachi
compute cluster and a high-speed network storage with ~400TB online capacity. For
more information about our research and learning environment, please visit us at
www.biac.duke.edu.

Interested applicants should send their application letters, CVs, and names of three
references, via e-mail to [email protected] with “High-Resolution Diffusion MRI
Postdoc” in the subject line. Additional questions may be directed to Drs. Alexandra
Badea ([email protected]) or Allen Song ([email protected]). Duke
University is an equal opportunity employer.
