Postdoctoral Position in Pediatric Neuroimaging and Fetal Neuroimaging at Stanford University Stanford University in United States

Stanford University is advertising a Postdoctoral Position in Pediatric Neuroimaging within the newly created LENS Lab (Laboratory for Early-Age Neuroimaging at Stanford), led by Dr. Ana Filipa Geraldo in the Pediatric Radiology division. The project sits at the intersection of pediatric neuroimaging, fetal neuroimaging, brain development, neurosciences, and artificial intelligence, with a strong translational and clinical imaging focus.

The postdoctoral scholar will lead scientific projects including project design, data collection, independent image processing and analysis, statistical analysis, manuscript preparation, oral/poster presentations, and contributions to grant preparation. The role is especially relevant for candidates interested in pediatric neuroradiology, neuroimaging informatics, and advanced imaging methods.

Eligibility highlights: applicants should have either an MD with a strong record in neuroimaging processing/analysis or a PhD (or equivalent) in Biomedical Engineering, Medical Physics, Electrical and Computer Engineering, or a closely related field. Required experience includes R and Python, prior neuroimaging analysis (e.g., FreeSurfer, 3D Slicer), and at least one first-author journal publication. Preferred experience includes AI applied to healthcare and specialization in radiology/neuroradiology/pediatric neuroradiology.

Funding and duration: the position is a 1-year fixed-term postdoctoral appointment, with possible renewal depending on funding, performance, and operational needs. No stipend amount is listed in the post.

Application window: deadline for application submission is 2026-04-30. The post indicates a flexible start date up to January 1, 2027.
