Closing date Apr 22, 2024
Description Brain development in infants and its disruption by preterm birth or perinatal injury, can be measured with functional MRI (fMRI). Unfortunately, infants move in the scanner and half the images are discarded, precluding clinical application. In recent years, deep neural networks (DNNs) have led to breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and are finding growing application in biomedical imaging. DNNs have considerable potential to correct head motion in fMRI, as they can learn complex mappings, and exploit knowledge of brain structure. The postdoctoral researchers will develop DNNs to motion correct fMRI data.
Candidates must have expertise in at least one of the two following areas and must be willing to develop skills in the other:
design and optimisation of deep neural networks
neuroimaging with fMRI
Candidates must have a strong level of expertise in programming in python or another language.
Full time, €50,540-€54,965 per annum. Benefits include a pension contribution and PRSI social insurance.
Theses posts will be for two years but there may arise the opportunity to extend them.
