The Department of Neurosurgery at the University of Illinois at Chicago is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Associate to join a multidisciplinary research program focused on advanced cerebrovascular imaging, artificial intelligence, and outcome prediction. This position offers the opportunity to work at the intersection of neurosurgery, neuroimaging, and AI, with access to rich clinical datasets and collaboration with neurosurgeons, engineers, and data scientists.

Research areas include advanced medical imaging (MRI, CTA, angiography), image segmentation and quantitative analysis, AI/machine learning for cerebrovascular disease (stroke, AVMs, intracranial stenosis), imaging-based modeling, and prediction of clinical outcomes. The program emphasizes the translation of AI tools into clinically meaningful workflows.

The ideal candidate will have a PhD (or equivalent) in biomedical engineering, computer science, medical imaging, data science, or a related field, with a strong background in image analysis, AI/ML, or computational modeling. Experience with Python, MATLAB, PyTorch/TensorFlow, or similar frameworks is preferred. Interest in clinically driven, translational research is highly desirable.

This position is supported by NIH and foundation-funded research, offering access to large, well-curated cerebrovascular imaging datasets, strong mentorship, publication opportunities, and career development in a collaborative environment bridging medicine and engineering.
