Description

Applications are invited for an experienced image-analysis project scientist at the newly established Population Neuroscience & Developmental Neuroimaging Program at the Bloorview Research Institute in Toronto, Canada. The Program provides a dynamic, interdisciplinary setting for studies of environmental and genetic factors that are shaping structure and function of the human brain. We are interested both in the dynamics of typical development from pregnancy, through childhood and adolescence to adulthood, as well as in factors underlying vulnerability and resilience to various forms of early adversity, such as very preterm birth. This work will involve a number of scientists across the Bloorview Research Institute, their trainees and collaborators.

The successful candidate will research, modify, implement and execute various image-analysis pipelines for processing of magnetic resonance images (structural and functional) acquired in large (n>1,000) population-based studies, as well as in focused clinically oriented investigations. The candidate will oversee management of all imaging data (e.g., data transfer, archiving, back ups). The candidate will also help with training and supervision of end-users, as well as preparation of grant applications and manuscripts.

Requirements

The candidate should have a PhD in Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, Medical Biophysics or other relevant disciplines, and an extensive experience in the implementation and execution of image-analysis pipelines. In addition, the candidate should have relevant IT experience that includes familiarity with High Performance Computing (e.g., Compute Canada HPC networks).

The selected candidate will work with a multi-disciplinary team of experienced researchers, post-doctoral fellows, graduate students and clinicians. The candidate should be a team player able and willing to interact with less technically inclined people. The candidate should have excellent communication skills (oral and written), should be diligent and open-minded with a flexible approach to working in an academic environment. Ability to multi-task, and a real appetite for acquiring new skills and knowledge are positive advantages in applying for this role.

This position is temporary full-time with the possibility of extension or permanency.
