Imaging Faculty Position in Biomedical Engineering

Imaging Faculty Position in Biomedical Engineering

New Jersey Institute of Technology, Newark, New Jersey

Description

New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), NJ's leading public
technical university and emerging leader in biomedical engineering,
invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the
Assistant Professor level with a research concentration in medical
imaging. Preference will be given to those candidates whose imaging
expertise can support cell and tissue engineering, molecular imaging,
and / or neural imaging.

NJIT offers BS, MS, and PhD degrees in Biomedical Engineering (BME)
and other related engineering disciplines.  Imagining facilities with
strong ties to BME within our University Heights community include: 1)
state-of-the-art confocal microscopy, 2) 3T MRI Advanced Imaging
Center, 3) molecular imaging via "molecular beacons", 4) SEM and TEM.
Current collaborations supporting imaging research exist with the
adjacent NJ Medical School (NJMS), the Public Health Research
Institute (PHRI), and Rutgers University-Newark. NJIT has recently
received $50M from the state of New Jersey to create a 100,000 square
foot facility for stem cell research.  Strong collaborations in neural
imaging exist due to NJIT's strategic research area in neural
engineering, the nearby Neurological Institute of NJ (NJMS), top-tier
Kessler Rehabilitation Institute, and the world class Center for
Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience at Rutgers-Newark.

Application

Successful candidates must demonstrate an ability to develop a
world-class research program, be capable of obtaining competitive
external research funding, and participate in and be committed to
outstanding teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.
