Job Summary

This role seeks a dedicated Research Associate to join the MR Physics group at the University of Greifswald, focusing on cutting-edge research in cardiovascular and neurovascular MRI. The primary mission is the development and validation of novel, efficient 4D-Flow MRI sequences, specifically utilizing radial trajectories and “virtual Dual-VENC” techniques powered by neural networks, aimed at improving the investigation of cerebral aneurysms. Day-to-day tasks include developing sequence prototypes, validating them in 3D-printed aneurysm replicas against 'gold standard' data, installing the sequences on various clinical scanners (Siemens, GE), and contributing to scientific publications. Candidates must hold a completed university degree in a relevant scientific or engineering field (e.g., Physics, Medical Technology, Computer Science) and possess strong communication skills in both English and German. This EU-funded project offers an excellent interdisciplinary environment for research and professional qualification, working closely with university clinics and applied computer science institutes.
