The Jokerst Lab at the University of California, San Diego is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join a NIH-funded project focused on using ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging to monitor and guide treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. This project involves advanced imaging, image analysis, and longitudinal clinical studies in human subjects.

Key Responsibilities:

Conduct photoacoustic and ultrasound imaging on human research subjects in clinical settings (wound care and dialysis clinics)

Develop and validate image acquisition and image processing pipelines

Analyze imaging data to extract biomarkers related to perfusion, hypoxia, and wound healing outcomes

Work directly with physicians, nursing, and patients—including recruiting, consenting, and scanning subjects—all under IRB-approved protocols.

Contribute to manuscript writing, presentations, and project reporting

Required Qualifications:

Ph.D. in Bioengineering, Biomedical Imaging, Electrical Engineering, Medical Physics, or a related field

Hands-on experience with ultrasound and/or photoacoustic imaging systems (e.g., LED-based, OPO-laser, VisualSonics, Verasonics)

Strong background in image analysis and quantitative data interpretation

Experience with human subjects research including IRB protocols and patient consenting

Excellent communication and teamwork skills for navigating fast-paced clinical scenarios.

Preferred Qualifications:

Familiarity with ImageJ, MATLAB, or Python for image processing

Prior publications in ultrasound/photoacoustic imaging or wound healing

Experience working in clinical environments with interdisciplinary teams

About the Lab and Project: The Jokerst Lab is housed in the Aiiso Yufeng Li Family Department of Chemical and Nano Engineering and collaborates with UCSD School of Medicine and VA San Diego. This project leverages access to high-throughput wound and dialysis clinics and uses real-time co-registered photoacoustic and ultrasound data to guide therapy and predict relapse in diabetic foot ulcers. The work will be conducted in beautiful La Jolla, California with a beautiful climate and fantastic quality of life.

How to Apply: Please send an introductory email to jjokerst@ucsd.edu with “DFU Postdoc” as the subject line.
