　　Imperial College London - Department of Computing

　　Job Summary

　　We have an exciting opportunity for a Research Assistant/Associate to work on a joint initiative at Imperial College between the Data Science Institute (DSI) https://www.imperial.ac.uk/data-science, the Imperial NIHR Brain Sciences Theme - Division of Brain Sciences and the Institute for Translational Medicine and Therapeutics (ITMAT) Data Science Group https://www.imperial.ac.uk/itmat-data-science-group to develop a “Big Data” translational platform for data curation, quality control and standardized analysis of complex imaging and phenotypic data.

　　Intended initially to rapidly enable more efficient exploitation of the UK Biobank (http://www.ukbiobank.ac.uk) dataset hosted at Imperial College, the platform is intended also to support emerging “real-time”, anonymized hospital administrative, laboratory and imaging data for research in the longer term. The initial focus will be on diseases of the brain, particularly including late-life dementias.

　　Duties and responsibilties

　　The successful candidate will be expected to exploit and contribute to the integration of high-throughput imaging data analysis methods, and to deploy advanced statistical analyses or machine-learning methods to discover associations between imaging features relevant to pathology and phenotypic data.

　　To apply you should have a track record of medical image computing with solid knowledge in handling/processing large and complex datasets; ability to conduct and complete research and development projects; working knowledge of specialized toolkits and libraries (e.g. in R, Matlab, Python) and generic coding languages (e.g. Java, Perl, C/C++); basic shell scripting in UNIX. Previous experience with SQL is a plus.

　　Essential requirements

　　· To apply as a Research Associate you must have a PhD (or equivalent) in computer science, engineering, informatics or biomedical and/or biostatistics discipline.

　　· At Research Assistant level a good first degree (or equivalent) or Masters (or equivalent) in a related area.
