A postdoctoral position is available in the Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy Section (Richard Spencer, Chief) of the National Institute on Aging of the National Institutes of Health, located in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. The work will center on spectroscopic and imaging studies of cartilage tissue derived from tissue engineering protocols and from animals. Other research opportunities may be available depending upon the interests and background of the successful candidate. MRI instrumentation consists of a triple-resonance vertical wide-bore 9.4T Bruker DMX 400 Avance system with microimaging and solids capability, a double-resonance Bruker 7T/30 cm DBX system, and a 3T whole-body Philips MRI system equipped with proton and heteronuclear spectroscopy. A background in MRI imaging or NMR spectroscopy of connective tissue is preferred, although applications are also invited from individuals with experience in other areas of biological MRI and NMR. The appointment will be as an IRTA Postdoctoral Fellow for US citizens, or as a Visiting Fellow for non-citizens. Accordingly, applicants must have fewer than five years of postdoctoral experience. Interested individuals should e-mail their CV and the names, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses of at least three references to: Dr. Richard Spencer, Magnetic Resonance Imaging Section, NIH/NIA, GRC 4D-06, 5600 Nathan Shock Drive, Baltimore, MD 21224 USA; Tel. +1 410-558-8226; FAX +1 410-558-8376; e-mail: spencer@helix.nih.gov website: http://www.grc.nia.nih.gov/branches/lci/nmr/nmr.htm |
