Careers
The BioMedical Engineering and Imaging Institute (BMEII) at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is seeking talented individuals for the following opportunities:
Available Positions:
Research Nurse
In this role, the successful candidate works to provide and maintain comprehensive nursing care to subjects in a diverse clinical medical imaging research setting for the BioMedical Engineering and Imaging Institute in concert with the Department of Interventional, Molecular and Diagnostic Radiology. The standards of care provided to the research subject results from the ability to assess the health care needs while ensuring compliance to the requirements of the protocol. The research nurse collaborates with all members of the research team to effectively direct and manage all aspects of the research protocol with minimum supervision.
Postdoctoral Position in Advanced Radial MRI
The BioMedical Engineering and Imaging Institute at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow to work on advanced radial MRI. The candidate will be working with Dr. Li Feng to develop GRASP (Golden-angle RAdial Sparse Parallel imaging)-based new techniques for rapid free-breathing quantitative MRI. We are also actively exploring the use of deep learning techniques for improving radial MRI and quantitative MRI.
Postdoctoral Scholar Neuroimaging
The BioMedical Engineering and Imaging Institute (BMEII) at The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar or Research Associate to develop and apply novel MRI techniques in neuroimaging. This is an excellent opportunity to conduct innovative MR research as a member of a team of technical and clinical experts with access to state‐of‐the‐art imaging equipment housed in the Hess Center for Science and Medicine. The position will be in the high field neuroimaging and spectroscopy group led by Dr. Priti Balchandani, Director of Neuroimaging Research at BMEII. Position responsibilities include independent research, contributions to publications and grants, and leadership roles within the new Institute. Opportunities for teaching also exist. The candidate should have a PhD in Engineering, Physics, Neuroscience, Mathematics, Computer Science or a related field.
Instructor
The BioMedical Engineering and Imaging Institute (BMEII) at The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is seeking an MR physics Instructor level faculty member to develop and translate new neuroimaging acquisition and analysis methods and provide technical support for new and existing MR imaging projects. As part of the BMEII, the candidate will have access cutting-edge instrumentation, including multiple research-dedicated systems including the Siemens: 7T, 3T, 1.5T, MR/PET, PET/CT, MDCT, among other instruments. They will have the opportunity to interact with a diverse team of investigators with complementary expertise in neuroimaging, cardiovascular imaging, neurosurgery, and neuroscience.
