[beasiswa] [INFO] PhD/Postdoc Positions for Optical Imaging at the Medical University of Vienna

 

Dear all,

FYI,
Type: PhD or Postdoc
Subject area: Optical Imaging
Available: Immediately
Duration: 3 years for PhD/Postdoc contract will be renewed annually based on performance
Keywords: biophotonics; photoacoustics; optics
Contact: Mengyang Liu (mengyang.liu@meduniwien.ac.at)

Description

Both a PhD and a Postdoc positions are open now and are available immediately. The vacancies are offered by Prof. Wolfgang Drexler at the Center for Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering of the Medical University of Vienna. As an internationally recognized lab for pioneering work in optical coherence tomography (OCT), the Drexler Lab has been investigating dual modality imaging using both OCT and photoacoustics. The job will include but not be limited to the optimization of our current OCT/Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) system; assisting in building fast scanning, spectroscopic optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy (OR-PAM) systems; implementing algorithms for image reconstruction, processing and rendering; performing small animal studies in collaboration with our biological and clinical collaborators, etc.

You will work closely with another PhD student in the Drexler Lab in the field of photoacoustics and other specialized personnel in the center are readily available to help you in programming, mechanical modeling and electronics. However, you will be assumed to be capable of solving problems fairly independently without detailed day to day guidance.
