desire to utilize high resolution retinal imaging.  A strategic goal of 
the Flaum Eye Institute is to develop and apply innovative new 
capabilities to study the structure and function of the retina in 
healthy and diseased eyes.  This includes basic research on a number of 
animal model systems including (but not limited to) mouse and non-human 
primate systems.  Research may also involve human imaging and the 
translation of new retinal imaging methods to their use in clinical 
applications.

This position will involve a primary appointment in the Flaum Eye

Imaging Alliance <http://aria.cvs.rochester.edu/>). Candidates with 
experience developing an advanced high-resolution ophthalmic imaging 
such as OCT, SLO, fundus and two-photon systems are strongly encouraged 
to apply. Potential collaborators and excellent graduate students are 
also available through related programs; including the Center for Visual 
Science <https://www.cvs.rochester.edu/> (a strong, university-wide 
community of 35 faculty engaged in vision research), the Neuroscience 
program <https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/neuroscience.aspx>, Biomedical 
Engineering <http://www.hajim.rochester.edu/bme/>, Biomedical Genetics 
<https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/biomedical-genetics.aspx> and the
