POSTDOCTORAL POSITION
Computational Brain Anatomy / Shape Analysis
Columbia University at the New York State Psychiatric Institute
A postdoctoral position is open in the Division of Molecular Imaging and Neuropathology at Columbia University involving image processing of brain MRI data to extract anatomical structures, analyze their shapes, and construct a Bayesian framework for brain feature matching underlying a completely new version of the Mindboggle automated anatomical labeling software (http://www.mindboggle.info).
The postdoctoral fellow will work with Dr. Arno Klein (http://www.binarybottle.com) during a 3-year period on a federally funded NIMH R01. The resulting database will be made publicly available and the open source, modular codebase will be in Python and C/C++. The ideal candidate will have a degree in computer science, biomedical engineering, computational neuroscience or a related field. Prior experience in neuroanatomy, machine learning, and/or Python programming would be desirable.
To be considered for this position applicants should submit a CV and references via email to:
