About this position
SAHMRI (South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute) is advertising a Clinical Research Fellow in Point-of-Care Imaging based in Adelaide, Australia. The role sits within the Clinical and Research Imaging Centre (CRIC), an advanced imaging research environment with ultra-high field MRI, photon-counting CT, and an ultra-low field point-of-care MRI research program.
The fellow will help design and implement research programs focused on ultra-low field brain MRI, with priority areas including cerebrovascular health, traumatic injury, and the role of portable imaging in improving health equity. The post also emphasizes cross-disciplinary clinical leadership, collaboration with clinicians and health systems, and integration with SAHMRI’s Lifelong Health Theme and Heart and Vascular Health.
This is a clinical research role rather than a PhD or postdoctoral studentship. The successful candidate is expected to contribute to project management, ethical review processes, stakeholder engagement, scientific publications, and competitive funding applications. Specific MRI acquisition and analysis expertise is not essential because support is provided by MRI technologists and a data/AI scientist.
Eligibility highlights: an undergraduate medical degree or allied health qualification with relevant clinical experience is desirable; a PhD or postgraduate qualification in a relevant field is also desirable. Applicants should have at least two years of patient-facing research experience and experience in one or more of general practice, public health, medical imaging, stroke, neurology, or cardiovascular disease. Strong communication, analytical, presentation, and project management skills are required, and applicants must hold relevant working rights in Australia.
Funding/employment: part-time 0.5 FTE contract until 30 June 2028. The post is described as a Commonwealth supported role, and SAHMRI offers salary packaging up to $15,900.
Deadline: applications close on 6 November 2026.
How to apply: submit an application via the SEEK listing. Review the linked position description for full role details. For enquiries, contact Kari Hughes at [email protected].
