Job Abstract

The Computing Division at Imperial School is in search of a extremely motivated Analysis Affiliate or Analysis Assistant to take part within the improvement of novel in-vivo magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and 3D microscopy methods within the coronary heart, in addition to superior, deep studying approaches for MR post-processing and evaluation.

As a part of an ongoing analysis programme at Imperial School London NHLI and Computing, Imperial researchers embedded within the Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) Unit on the Royal Brompton Hospital (RBH), are growing diffusion tensor cardiovascular magnetic resonance (DT-CMR) strategies that present info on the third-dimensional microstructure of the muscle within the beating coronary heart of sufferers and wholesome volunteers non-invasively. With this new know-how, which has already offered novel insights into the microstructural dynamics of cardiac contraction, we goal to enhance our understanding of how the wholesome coronary heart capabilities in addition to how microstructural dysfunction contributes to illness. This thrilling new modality will yield a disruptive reassessment of cardiac operate and may have vital diagnostic and prognostic worth in cardiac illness.

The profitable candidate will be part of a multi-disciplinary group of physicists, pc scientists, cardiologists and technologists embedded inside Imperial School and RBH and can be concerned within the improvement of microscopy methods, in vivo and ex vivo MRI information acquisition, picture reconstruction and post-processing methods, in addition to synthetic intelligence algorithms to optimise all the above, beneath the supervision of Prof Daniel Rueckert (Division of Computing) and Dr Sonia Nielles-Vallespin (NHLI).

Duties and Obligations

• Co-develop MRI pulse sequence and reconstruction strategies in for in-vivo and ex-vivo imaging of the guts on our Siemens 3T scanner and Bruker preclinical system.
• Co-develop microscopy methods to picture coronary heart tissue.
• Adapt post-processing information evaluation strategies to extract the extra info encoded into the pictures originating from the sequence developed above.
• Develop AI algorithms to help the strategies above.
• Validate these methods in phantoms, pre-clinical experiments and wholesome volunteers.

Important necessities

Analysis Affiliate stage:

• PhD in MRI, or a carefully associated self-discipline, or equal analysis, industrial or business expertise
• Data of analysis strategies and statistical procedures
• Sensible expertise inside a analysis atmosphere and / or publication in related and refereed journals
• Expertise in a programming language (C++, MATLAB or Python most well-liked)
• Expertise in growing MRI pulse sequences and/or picture reconstruction methods (ideally with Siemens scanners).
• Expertise in scanning phantoms and wholesome volunteers.
