IITB Project Recruitment:


Project title: Development of GUI based on single board level computer for data acquisition and real
time display of cerebral blood flow images inan in-house developed small animal imaging platform.

About the project: We are delighted to announce the successful development of an innovative Optical
Cerebral Blood Flow Imaging Platform tailored for small animals such as mice and rats. This
cutting-edge system incorporates advanced laser and scanning optics, coupled with a high-resolution
camera for precise blood flow detection. Additionally, sophisticated algorithms have been
meticulously integrated for real-time image processing to accurately measure blood flow dynamics.
The projects success hinges on the meticulous optimization of optical design, mechanical
components, and electronic hardware.
This platform offers a broad spectrum of applications, ranging from functional neuroimaging studies
using animals to drug testing with animal models, and contributing to educational initiatives in
laboratories.
We are currently inviting applications for an exciting opportunity for a Junior Research Fellow
position within our team, focusing on the recently developed Optical Cerebral Blood Flow Imaging
Platform designed for small animals like mice and rats. This role presents a distinctive opportunity to
contribute to a pioneering project positioned at the forefront of optics and neuroimaging. As a Junior
Research Fellow, you will play an active role in enhancing the platforms optical design, refining
mechanical components, and optimizing electronic hardware. Additionally, you will play a crucial role
in optimizing associated imaging and image processing algorithms. This multifaceted role provides a
unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the comprehensive development and improvement of the
imaging system, contributing to advancements in both hardware and software components.

While prior experience in optical system design is preferred, it is not mandatory for this Junior
Research Fellow (JRF) position.
We highly appreciate and welcome individuals with diverse backgrounds and skills. Nevertheless, for
success in this JRF role, strong coding proficiency in Python, MATLAB, or C is essential. Additionally,
an understanding of basic electronic hardware, data acquisition (DAQ), and familiarity with single
board computer platforms like Arduino or Raspberry Pi will be preferable. Its important to note that
the handling of animals is not required for this project. Your primary focus will be on contributing to
the enhancement of the Optical Cerebral Blood Flow Imaging Platform, with an emphasis on optical
design, mechanical components, and electronic hardware optimization.
