日本北海道大学分子影像博士后职位

A postdoctoral position is immediately available in Dr. Hiroshi Hirata’s group, studying advanced technologies of Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) imaging for biomedical applications. His research program aims to develop magnetic resonance-based techniques for enentioselective molecular imaging. This position is supported by theNEXTprogram of the Japanese Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS), and is a year-term position, renewable until March 2014. A successful candidate will be involved in technological developments of simultaneousEPR-based molecular imaging, such asEPRscanner’s hardware, data acquisition software, and image reconstruction software (Anal. Chem. vol. 81, pp. 7501-7506, 2009; Chem. Commun. vol. 47, pp. 3245-3247, 2011).EPRimaging of mice are also planed in this program (pH and pO2 visualization in tumor model animals). A Ph.D. in related fields (applied physics, chemistry, and engineering) and a record of productive research experience in magnetic resonance studies are required. Experiences with National Instruments LabVIEW,ITTVisual Information SolutionsIDL, and MathWorks’sMATLABare preferred. Good communication skills in English are essential. There are severalEPRspectrometers in the laboratory, a JEOL’s X-band CW-EPRspectrometer, a laboratory-built 1.1-GHz CW-EPRspectrometer, a laboratory-built 750-MHz CW-EPRspectrometer/imager, and a laboratory -built 300-MHz CW-EPRspectrometer/imager. In theNMRfacility of Hokkaido University, a Varian 7T-MRIis available for small-animal imaging studies. A current curriculum vitae including a full list of publications, a brief statement of research interests, and names of two references, should be sent to Dr. Hiroshi Hirata, Professor, Division of Bioengineering and Bioinformatics, Graduate School of Information Science and Technology, Hokkaido University, North 14, West 9, Kita-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido 060-0814, Japan, or e-mail:hhirata@ist.hokudai.ac.jp(subject:NEXTPostdoctoral Position).

Hokkaido University is one of the top research-oriented universities in Japan. Hokkaido University is located in the heart of Sapporo, the capital city of Hokkaido. Sapporo has a population of approximately 2 million people, and is the biggest city in northern Japan. Sapporo is known as a very beautiful city, and is regarded as one of the most livable cities in Japan. In the downtown of Sapporo, convenient public transportation services are available, including subway, bus, and tram.
