The Department of Neuroscience at the University of California, Berkeley seeks applications for an Assistant/Associate/Full Project Scientist in the area of brain MR Imaging in the Feinberg Lab. The goal of the project supporting this position is to advance scientific discovery using the Next Generation (NexGen) 7T scanner, the most powerful 7T scanner in the world. The project supports the NexGen 7T scanner as a resource for the neuroscience research community to perform neuroimaging at the scale of cortical layers and columns. Towards this effort, the Project Scientist will participate and assist in leading NexGen 7T research projects. The position is part of a collaborative team-building effort in the Feinberg Lab, combining expert scientists in hardware, software and neuroscientists.
The Project Scientist will be expected to collaborate with academic and industrial partners, as well as mentor and train graduate and undergraduate students. The Project Scientist will also be expected to lead the development of novel imaging sequences and image reconstruction techniques to fully utilize the NexGen 7T scanner's high performance Impulse gradient system at 7T (200mT/m, 900 slew rate), 64 - 128 channel high-density receiver arrays, dynamic shim array, and 16 channel parallel transmit system.
