What you'll do
As a Preclinical Imaging Application Specialist, you will work at the intersection of science, technology and innovation. You will help researchers translate complex biomedical research questions into effective imaging strategies and reliable experimental results. Your primary area of focus will be MRI, complemented by ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging. No two days are the same. You will advise researchers on the possibilities and optimal use of imaging technologies, develop and optimise imaging protocols, and train researchers to use advanced imaging equipment independently. For more complex studies, you will provide hands-on experimental support or perform specialised measurements yourself. You will also contribute to the processing, quantification and interpretation of imaging data. Experience in data analysis and/or image processing is therefore a strong advantage. You are more than a technical specialist: as a knowledgeable partner to researchers, you directly contribute to the quality of their research. Together with colleagues and expert users, you will develop new imaging methods and applications and contribute to training, education and knowledge sharing. Through AMIE’s leading role within AMICE, the large-scale scientific research infrastructure, you will also have the opportunity to contribute to broader developments in preclinical imaging. You will have plenty of opportunities to broaden your expertise, learn new techniques and develop your own ideas.

AMIE also plays a leading role within AMICE, the large-scale scientific research infrastructure that brings together expertise, technology and innovation in imaging. In this role, AMIE contributes to the development and application of advanced and multimodal imaging and helps make this expertise and infrastructure widely accessible to the research community. As an Application Specialist, you will work in an environment where high-quality research support, technological innovation and scientific collaboration are closely connected. You will join a small, multidisciplinary team of five professionals with strong backgrounds in biomedical research: three Application Specialists, a Head of Innovation, and a Head of Operations & Daily Management. The team also works closely with expert users and researchers from a wide range of disciplines. Qualifications and skills Qualifications and skills You are a PhD-qualified professional who enjoys working at the intersection of advanced imaging technology and biomedical research and is motivated by supporting and guiding researchers.
