Postdoctoral Research Scientist Position in Ocular Imaging

We are seeking a highly motivated research scientist or postdoctoral fellow to join our 2024 CIHR-funded project at PhotoMedicine Labs, University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. The project focuses on developing a novel application of Photon Absorption Remote Sensing (PARS) for detailed functional and structural imaging of the eye.

Project Overview

The primary goal is to enhance the safety, repeatability, and contrast of in-vivo PARS imaging systems while accurately measuring key functional parameters such as blood oxygenation and the metabolic rate of oxygen consumption. These parameters are critical for diagnosing and managing ocular diseases, with the potential to revolutionize ophthalmic diagnostics through non-contact, label-free PARS functional imaging.

Responsibilities
  • Conduct independent research in optical imaging system design, including OCT, confocal, and PARS microscopes.
  • Collaborate weekly with international ophthalmology teams to design experiments and analyze results.
  • Design, build, and test complex optical systems for clinical and pre-clinical applications.
  • Lead the development of imaging technologies for real-time, non-invasive monitoring of ocular conditions.
  • Collect and interpret data from clinical and pre-clinical studies.
  • Contribute to the preparation of manuscripts, presentations, and grant applications.
  • Mentor junior researchers and contribute to the training of graduate students in optical system design and data analysis.
Requirements
  • PhD in Engineering, Physics, Optics, or Optical Engineering.
  • Background in ocular imaging and experience with in vivo imaging techniques is a MUST.
  • Strong hands-on experience in optical system design and development.
  • Proven expertise in optical engineering theory, principles, and practice.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to refine experimental protocols.
  • Clear communication of complex design concepts to interdisciplinary teams, including those in biological sciences.
  • Strong track record of scientific publications in high-impact journals.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Preferred Experience
  • Expertise in advanced image processing techniques and software.
  • Experience in animal imaging and familiarity with eye safety protocols.
  • Experience in leading collaborative research projects with interdisciplinary teams.
