Job 3:
Position: Graduate Research Assistant Positions in Medical Image Analysis

Several graduate research assistant positions are available in IDEA lab (https://www.med.unc.edu/bric/ideagroup), UNC-Chapel Hill, NC.
 
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 deformable segmentation and registration methods for serial CT images of prostate acquired during the radiotherapy of prostate cancer.

Registration: The successful candidate should have a strong background on Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, or Computer Science, preferably with emphasis on image matching. Experience on medical image registration is highly desirable. People with machine learning background are particularly encouraged to apply. Strong knowledge on neuroscience and programming (good command of LINUX, C and C++, scripting, and Matlab) are desirable. The research topic will be the development and validation of various methods for deformable registration of a set of images, or a set of serial (4D) images from different subjects.
 
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.
