Dear Confocal Listserv,
I am posting this to the listserv on behalf of Prof. David Mayerich,
University of Houston. The ad below is focused on postdoctoral
positions. I added to the subject line Graduate Students because
http://stim.ee.uh.edu/personnel/available-positions/ also lists
available positions for graduate student -- and undergraduate
researchers too. David is pretty new to Houston, is well funded -- see
News section of
http://stim.ee.uh.edu/ -- and there are opportunities to
connect with collaborators, including CooperLab
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Laurence-Cooper-Cell-Therapy/195075373908115that I am in.
Sincerely,
George

Postdoctoral fellowships available in 3D and spectroscopic image
processing and analysis.
The STIM Laboratory is a new research group in the Department of
Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Houston. We
have open positions for postdoctoral fellows interested in 3D and
spectroscopic imaging and image processing. This work will focus on
developing new data processing methods for disease diagnosis, with a
particular focus on cancer imaging using various optical techniques
including confocal microscopy, SPIM, and mid-infrared microscopy.
Funding is available to support fellowships for up to four years.
http://stim.ee.uh.edu/personnel/available-positions/Location:
The University of Houston is classified as a “Tier One” (Carnegie RU/VH)
research university, and is one of four major research universities in
Texas. We are located in central Houston, which is the fourth largest
city in the United States and a central player in both energy and
biomedical research. Houston is currently the top city in the U.S. for
job creation, and is home to more than 20 Fortune 500 companies. We have
a strong industrial and academic research focus, including both NASA and
the Texas Medical Center, which is the largest medical center in the world.
Qualifications:
* Completed a doctoral degree in electrical engineering, computer
science, mechanical engineering, or a field directly related to 3D or
spectroscopic image processing (including data mining, visualization,
and machine learning).
* Demonstrate a strong potential for successful research in data
analysis or data collection. We are currently focused on developing
methods for collecting and processing large-scale images of tissue
biopsies using mid-infrared spectroscopic imaging. This will require
extensive collaboration with clinical colleagues at the nearby Texas
Medical Center, including the MD Anderson Cancer Center.
* Willingness to provide support to both undergraduate and graduate
students through mentoring and collaboration.
* The ability to work independently on interdisciplinary projects,
developing a strong collaborative relationship with clinicians and other
colleagues outside of your own field.
* Proficiency in both written and oral English.
Application:
Interested scientists should send their CV and a description of their
research interests to
