Stellenbeschreibung
The department of Experimental Molecular Imaging - IBMT / ExMI - is offering
PhD positions (f/m/d) for Design & Characterization of PET/MRI Modules
Working hours: Full-time 100% (currently 38,5 hours/week) Duration/Term of employment: 1 year with option of prolongation. The successful candidate has the opportunity to pursue a doctoral degree.Start date: as soon as possibleRemuneration/Rates: EG 13 (TV-L)
Pioneering the Future of PET/MRI in Medical Imaging
Join us at the forefront of medical imaging technology as part of the HD-MetaPET project (BMBF). We are innovating by developing a PET insert for our state-of-the-art 1.5T MRI system—an opportunity to contribute directly to advancements that would revolutionize diagnostic capabilities in healthcare! In the exciting upcoming project phase, we will complete the integration of our newly designed PET detectors within the MRI. This integration requires a clever and precise electromechanical concept for the PET system inside the MRI bore. Our chair has demonstrated significant expertise in PET-MRI system integration, with a proven record of adapting each installation to meet specific research requirements.
Key Responsibilities: ✓ Characterize detector performance systematically. ✓ Develop integration concepts for PET modules in MRI. ✓ Investigate RF shielding strategies. ✓ Design cooling and power systems. ✓ Collaborate with workshops and manufacturers.
Your Profile: ✓ Passion for mechanical design; CAD skills (SolidWorks). ✓ Ability to work in multidisciplinary teams. ✓ Experience in data analysis and machine learning is a plus. ✓ Basic knowledge of electromagnetic fields is advantageous.
Why you should choose us?
We offer… ✓ Contribute to groundbreaking research in medical imaging. ✓ Access to a fully equipped 1.5T MRI system. ✓ Collaborative environment with experienced researchers. ✓ Support for professional development and training. ✓ Flexible working arrangements promoting work-life balance. ✓ 30 days of vacation per year for full-time employment ✓ A bonus of 3,000 euros for employees who help recruit employees in the care sector ✓ An attractive company pension scheme from VBL ✓ Education opportunities, including updating and upgrading ✓ Access to public transport ✓ In-house kindergarten (places subject to availability) ✓ Staff residences (places subject to availability and by arrangement) ✓ An onboarding app for new employees ✓ Extended opening hours in the staff restaurant
