The research group “Magnetic Resonance Physics and Methodology” at the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Basel is looking for a PhD candidate. 

Your position

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), developed in the early 1970s, offers exceptional soft tissue sensitivity and has powered the astounding progress of medicine over the past fifty years. And it continues to do so. Realizing these potential benefits through research and development is one of the most important challenges in state-of-the-art biomedical engineering. Our research is focused on the fundamentals of magnetic resonance physics, as well as on the development of dedicated MR methods and data post-processing methods for applications in biophysical, biochemical, and clinical sciences.

We are looking for a PhD candidate to join our research team in developing and implementing novel MRI techniques to access lung function and structure in newborns and toddlers with chronic respiratory diseases.

Your profile

• Master’s degree in Physics or related area
• Experience in Python, C++ or MATLAB
• Experience in MRI may be advantageous but is not required
• Strong motivation and commitment to research
• Fluency in English

We offer you

• An interesting and challenging job with high degree of self-responsibility in a professional environment with flexible working hours
• A dedicated MRI research environment and state-of-the-art MRI systems
• An interdisciplinary working environment
• The PhD position is fully funded for a maximum of 4 years in line with employment conditions established by the Swiss National Science Foundation
