Our mission as research center: Discover personalized medical solutions for environmentally triggered diseases to promote a healthier society in a rapidly changing world.
The Institute of Biological and Medical Imaging (IBMI) at Helmholtz Munich and the Chair of Biological Imaging (CBI) at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) are an integrated, multi-disciplinary research structure and form the cornerstone of a rapidly expanding bioengineering ecosystem in Munich, Germany; including the Helmholtz Pioneer Campus and the Research Center TranslaTUM, which integrate bioengineering with metabolic disorders and oncology, respectively.
We now seek a highly qualified and motivated PhD candidate (f/m/x) to drive the development of computational tools and data analysis methods in multispectral optoacoustic tomography for label-free imaging of metabolic parameters in animals and humans.

Your mission
The successful candidate will be instrumental in re-designing MSOT and adapting it to studies of metabolism and validate the re-designed system for cardio-metabolic imaging against established gold-standard imaging techniques. You will develop data analysis methods to extract metabolic markers from the rich spectral imaging datasets generated by MSOT imaging systems and help design optimized system specifications for improved data quality, especially in deeper tissue layers. Given the prevalence of cardio-metabolic disease in modern societies, this project has huge potential for high-impact research findings and exploitation. You will be integrated into a network of high-profile researchers within a novel DFG-funded research group, giving you excellent opportunities for scientific interaction and professional growth. |
