The Image Processing and Analysis Group and Integrated Cardiovascular Imaging Program, which are affiliated with the Departments of Diagnostic Radiology, Internal Medicine (Section of Cardiovascular Medicine), and Biomedical Engineering at Yale University, have openings for postdoctoral positions in the area of vascular image analysis and image-guided cardiovascular interventions. The work would involve primarily the development of image analysis/image-guided intervention algorithms. This NIH-funded research is performed collaboratively by a multidisciplinary team of investigators within the School of Medicine and is supported by an NIH postdoctoral training grant.

A strong background in image analysis and good programming skills are desirable. Experience working with open source toolkits such as VTK and ITK would be a plus. The applicant should have demonstrated skills in written and verbal communication (in English). Applicants should have a Ph.D. in Electrical or Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics or a related field. Candidates with no medical imaging experience but with strong math and programming skills will be considered.

The positions are open immediately and carry a two-year commitment. Yale is an Equal Opportunity/ Affirmative Action Employer. Applications from women and members of minority groups are encouraged. The positions are open to US Citizens and Permanent Residents only.
