Postdoctoral Fellowship in Metabolic Imaging and Cancer MRI at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in United States

Postdoctoral Fellowship in Metabolic Imaging at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), New York, USA.

This opportunity is centered on advanced metabolic imaging in cancer, with a strong focus on MR physics, hyperpolarized MRI, and in vivo tumor metabolism. The project spans research from preclinical animal models to humans and emphasizes translational and clinical collaboration within the Sloan Kettering Institute.

The lab’s research aims to better understand cancer metabolism in vivo and to develop strategies for treating cancer. The postdoctoral fellow will work on non-invasive imaging methods, leveraging hyperpolarized magnetic resonance to study metabolic processes and tumor biology. The post highlights an interdisciplinary environment involving basic scientists and clinicians, with opportunities to contribute to cutting-edge cancer imaging research.

Eligibility: candidates should have PhD training in physics, bioengineering, analytical chemistry, or a closely related discipline. Strong interest in MRI, metabolic imaging, and cancer research is expected, along with motivation for interdisciplinary and translational science.

Application: applicants should send one combined file containing a cover letter, CV, brief research summary, and contact information for at least two references. The post provides a lab website and contact email for Prof. Kayvan Keshari.

Funding: the post is advertised as a postdoctoral fellowship, but no stipend, salary, or funding amount is specified in the post.
