Several positions are available in IDEA lab (https://www.med.unc.edu/bric/ideagroup), UNC-Chapel Hill, NC. Both PhD position and postdoctoral position are available for each category of job described below.
Brain Image Segmentation and Surface Labeling: The successful candidate should have a strong background on Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, or Computer Science, preferably with emphasis on image processing and pattern recognition. Experience on medical image segmentation and analysis is highly desirable. People with machine learning background are particularly encouraged to apply. Knowledge on neuroscience and programming background (good command of LINUX, C and C++, scripting, and Matlab) are desirable. The research topic will be the development and validation of methods for atlas-based tissue segmentation (of neonatal brain images) and cortical surface labeling of brain images.
Deformable Segmentation: The successful candidate should have a strong background on Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, or Computer Science, preferably with emphasis on image feature extraction, shape representation, and shape statistics. Experience on medical image segmentation using deformable surface, level sets, and graph cut is highly desirable. People with machine learning background on image features and shape statistics are particularly encouraged to apply. Strong knowledge on programming (good command of LINUX, C and C++, scripting, and Matlab) are desirable. The research topic will be the development and validation of statistical deformable segmentation methods for lung, liver, prostate, and brain.
The successful candidates will be part of a diverse group including radiologists, psychologists, physicists, biostatistician, and computer scientists, and will build upon the group's previous work on medical image analysis. If interested, please email resume to Dr. Dinggang Shen (dgshenatmed.unc.edu).
