德国图宾根大学2020年招收博士后

The University of Tübingen, Department of Radiation Oncology (with section for Biomedical Physics) and Department for Interventional and Diagnostic Radiology (with section for Experimental Radiology), offer a

Postdoc position

(100 %, TV-L)

The position is part of a joint interdisciplinary research program on Magnetic Resonance guided Radiation Therapy (MRgRT), funded by the German Research Council (DFG PAK 997/1-1) and supported by the Medical Faculty Tübingen. The position is limited for 2 years, continuation for a third year is intended.

Description of the position/project:

Tübingen is an internationally leading site in clinical implementation of MRgRT. Through funding by the DFG the first 1.5 T MR-linear accelerator in Germany started in 2018. Our research program aims at unravelling the potential and limitations of online adaptive MRgRT in patients with head and neck, prostate, liver and rectal cancer. The postdoctoral researcher employed in this project will focus on the development of novel quantitative MR imaging sequences for predictive models and 4D-MR techniques for abdominal imaging as well as image analysis strategies using machine learning methods.
