We are seeking a highly motivated CMR Applications Specialist (postgraduate or postdoctoral) to join our team in the Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research (OCMR). You will be a member of the Advanced Cardiovascular Image Analysis Group, reporting to Prof. Stefan Piechnik (OU) and Dr. Margarita Gorodezky (GE). Beside translation and validation of the relevant technologies, you will provide guidance to other members of the research group, including postdocs, research assistants, technicians, and PhD and project students.
