Postdoctoral Research Position in Computational Imaging at Tufts University

A postdoctoral researcher is sought in the area of computational
imaging to support the following project:

1
    Advanced Image Formation For Diffuse Optical Tomography (DOT): As
part of a larger program in the area of breast cancer detection using
optical tomography, the objective of this project is the development
and deployment of image formation methods for the imaging of breast
cancers from hyperspectral DOT data sets (i.e., data collected from
over 100 narrowly spaced wavelengths in the near infrared).  Geometric
inversion techniques based on recently developed level set ideas are
to form the basis for the inversion methods.  The forward problem will
require efficient solution of multiple large-scale discretized PDEs.
In addition to large-scale algorithm development, a primary objective
is the processing and analysis of clinical data being developed under
a separate portion of the overall project.  Initial funding for one
year, with the possibility of annual renewal, subject to performance
review, for up to 5 years.  A PhD and relevant expertise in one or
more of the following is expected: computational inverse problems,
applied mathematics or scientific computing with experience in
computational PDEs, numerical linear algebra, and/or optimization.
Previous interdisciplinary project experience a plus.  If interested,
please send CV and cover letter to Profs. Eric Miller
(elmiller at ece.tufts.edu <mailto:elmiller at ece.tufts.edu>) and Misha
Kilmer (misha.kilmer at tufts.edu <mailto:misha.kilmer at tufts.edu>).


Tufts University is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity employer.
We are committed to increasing the diversity of our faculty.  Members
of underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.
