<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The
<b>Computational Breast Imaging Group</b> (<b>CBIG</b>) of the <b>Radiology Department</b> at the
<b>University of Pennsylvania</b> has open postdoctoral positions. CBIG is a group within the
<b>Center for Biomedical Image Computing and Analytics </b>(<b>CBICA</b>) with a mission to act as a translational catalyst between computational imaging science and
<b>breast cancer research</b>. Work in our group focuses on developing innovative methodology for multimodality image analysis and also on incorporating such methods into clinically relevant applications. Recent research interests also including
<b>expanding our current work more broadly in oncologic imaging, including lung and molecular imaging applications</b>.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt"><b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Postdoctoral Position Qualifications:<br>
</span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">We are seeking highly motivated individuals with excellent academic track-record, including first-author publications in peer-reviewed journals. Successful candidates should have, or be in the process
of completing, a PhD (or equivalent) in Biomedical, Electrical or Computer Engineering, Computer and Information Science, or related field. Ideal applicants should have a background on biomedical image analysis, computer vision, pattern recognition and/or
machine learning. Proficiency in quantitative analytical methods and computer programming (e.g.,
<b>Python, C/C++, ITK</b>) is essential. Experience with medical image analysis (e.g., MRI, CT, X-ray, Ultrasound) or statistical methods and software packages (e.g., R/SPSS) is preferable. Applicants should demonstrate excellent oral and written communication
skills, and the ability to work effectively independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Successful applicants will join a vibrant collaborative research environment, will work closely with clinical investigators, and will gain a first-hand experience
of our breast imaging program. Collaborators include faculty in our Radiology department, the Abramson Cancer Center, the Institute for the Translational Medicine and Therapeutics, and the Center for Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
