at Umeå center for Functional Brain Imaging (UFBI) and related institutes/labs.
Postdoctoral fellow at the Department of diagnostic radiology, at Lund University.
Description of the workplace Our research group, led by Charalampos Georgiopoulos, a neuroradiologist and associate professor, is dedicated to exploring neurodegenerative processes using advanced imaging techniques. The group benefits from the expertise of Danielle van Westen, also a neuroradiologist and associate professor, as well as a PhD student and a research assistant. In addition, we host medical students writing their theses, enriching our collaborative environment.
We collaborate closely with the department’s MRI physicists, who bring indispensable technical insights. Located at Skåne University Hospital in Lund, we have access to state-of-the-art imaging facilities, including a 7T scanner and multiple 3T scanners.
Eligibility Eligibility for employment as a postdoctoral researcher is limited to those who have a doctoral degree or a foreign degree deemed equivalent to a doctoral degree. This eligibility requirement must be fulfilled at the latest by the time the appointment decision is made, and proof that the eligibility requirement has been fulfilled must have been received by that time. Preference will be given to those who have completed their degree no more than three (3) years ago. If there are special reasons, the doctoral degree may have been obtained earlier. Special reasons refer to leave of absence due to illness, parental leave, clinical service, positions of trust in trade union organisations or other similar circumstances.
Associate Senior Lecturer in Medical Radiation Physics with a focus on MR physics, at Lund University.
Medical radiation physics is a subject area where physics and various radiation applications meet biology and medicine. Our activities include research and teaching in ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, and its medical applications in radiation therapy, radiology, nuclear medicine, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The research activities cover a wide range from basic scientific research to clinically applied studies in close collaboration with the healthcare system. The department is responsible for the five-year medical physicist education, which is a professional education regulated by the National Board of Health and Welfare, and which leads to work as a licensed medical physicist.
The main research focus of the MR physics group is on medical applications, especially related to imaging the morphology and function of the body on large and small scales. This includes, for instance, measurements of the tissue's microstructure, blood supply, brain activation, and metabolism.
