The MI&T group has a long history of developing novel imaging instruments and devices. The appointee will initially conduct academic research in collaboration with a faculty member or team, participating in one or more of the ongoing research projects on PET, SPECT and/or multi-modality imaging systems, but will be expected, over time, to develop their own independent research agenda and grant portfolio. Academic rank and compensation are dependent upon qualifications. This position is benefits-eligible. The University of Chicago offers a wide range of benefits programs and resources for eligible employees, including health, retirement, and paid time off. Information about the benefit offerings can be found in the Benefits Guidebook.
Prior to the start of employment, qualified applicants must have: 1) a doctoral degree or equivalent in physical sciences, engineering, or related field and 2) completed postdoctoral training.
We especially welcome applicants with expertise and experience in radiation detection technologies, PET and/or SPECT instrumentation, as well as related physics and computing methodologies, and image-guided therapy applications. Assessment of applications will consider publication record, experience with collaborative research, track record, and potential to obtain extramural funding.
To be considered, those interested must apply through The University of Chicago, Academic Recruitment job board, which uses Interfolio to accept applications: https://apply.interfolio.com/188833. Applicants must upload a CV including bibliography and a cover letter. Review of applications ends when the position is filled.
