The posting

A Research Scientist position is available in Dr. Francisco Robles’ Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy (OIS) Lab within the Department of Imaging Sciences for an outstanding and highly motivated candidate! St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital’s Department of Imaging Sciences is a new academic department that is recruiting faculty-level scientists and engineers specializing in the development of novel imaging technologies. Our goal is to drive technical innovation that will accelerate scientific discovery and improve clinical care.

The OIS Lab develops label-free optical imaging and computational microscopy tools to quantify biological structure and function across applications spanning in vivo clinical imaging, slide-free histology, hematology, organoids, and cell manufacturing. We are particularly interested in methods that combine innovative optical systems with physics-based reconstruction and AI to enable new discoveries and create clinically actionable imaging.

The Research Scientist will lead an independent research project (with mentorship and collaboration) that may include:

  • Next-generation handheld/probe-based implementations for in vivo clinical imaging
  • Computational reconstruction and real-time pipelines
  • AI-enabled analysis
  • Development of next generation point of care systems
  • DUV microscopy for rapid cytology/hematology measurements
  • Longitudinal, noninvasive imaging of 3D models (e.g., organoids) and translational workflows
  • Oversee cell cultures and preclinical research protocols

Successful candidates will have:

  • A PhD in biomedical engineering, electrical/computer engineering, mechanical engineering, physics, biology or related discipline
  • The ability to independently design and execute experiments and interpret data
  • A strong record of contributions to peer-reviewed research publications.
  • Familiarity with programming languages such as MATLAB and Python, and the ability to work with large imaging datasets
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to prepare high-quality manuscripts for publication

Preferred Expertise (one or more):

  • Optical system design / microscopy / instrumentation
  • Computational imaging / inverse problems / optimization
  • ML/AI for imaging
  • Laser-based imaging / nonlinear optics
  • Computer-Aided Design
  • Cell culture
  • Preclinical models

Minimum Education and/or Training:

  • Bachelor's degree in relevant scientific area is required.

Minimum Experience:

  • Eight (8) years of relevant work experience is required
  • Six (6) years of relevant work experience is required with a Master's degree
  • Three (3) years of relevant work experience is required with a PhD

Compensation

This is an estimate offered in good faith and a specific salary offer takes into account factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets, experience and training, licensure and certifications, and other business and organizational needs. It is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the salary range and compensation decisions are dependent on the facts and circumstances of each case. A reasonable estimate of the current salary range is $86,320 - $154,960 per year for the role of Scientist in the Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy Lab (Dr. Robles) at St Jude Department of Imaging Sciences.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
