We are recruiting 15 Early Stage Researchers to work on the INSPiRE-MED European project.

We seek highly motivated and qualified individuals to fill the 15 Early Stage Researcher three-years positions available in the project. The successful candidates will contribute to the development of advanced biomedical research tools in the field of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and Imaging, and its application to the clinical day-to-day practice.

Before applying, note that Early Stage Researchers are subject to the Eligibility and Mobility Rules:

• Early-Stage Researchers shall, at the time of recruitment by the host organisation, be in the first four years (full-time equivalent research experience) of their research careers and have not been awarded a doctoral degree.
• At the time of recruitment by the host organisation, researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of their host organisation for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to the reference date.

The available positions are:

ESR 1: Optimized sets of MRS scans for fingerprinting and dedicated parameter estimation by fitting or deep learning. At Universität Bern, Switzerland.

ESR 2: Maximize metabolic information in a multi-parametric study at ultra-high field, from pre-clinical to clinical validations. At École Polythechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland.
