Post-doctoral fellowships are available in clinical image processing. Specific interest areas are image processing (virtual endoscopy, volumetric visualization, image segmentation, registration, fusion, and algorithm development) and computer-aided diagnosis (feature extraction, classification, and databases). Fellows have access to state-of-the-art whole body MRI, multi-row detector CT and advanced graphics workstations. Candidates must have or soon expect to receive doctorates in applied mathematics or computer science. Applicants with a proven track record as evidenced by peer-reviewed publications on image processing or computer visualization and having strong software development and C++ skills are encouraged to apply. Initial appointment is for two years and is renewable thereafter on a periodic basis. NIH is an equal opportunity employer.
