Postdoctoral Research Fellow in AI for Ophthalmic Imaging at University of North Carolina at Charlotte University of North Carolina at Charlotte in United States

University of North Carolina at Charlotte is advertising a Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in AI for Ophthalmic Imaging within the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

The lab, led by Minhaj Nur Alam, is recruiting 1–2 postdocs for a project focused on advancing artificial intelligence for vision and healthcare. The research is supported by an NIH/NEI R01-funded project and centers on retinal imaging, including OCT and OCTA analysis, federated learning, multimodal models, and vision-language AI.

Research themes highlighted in the post include privacy-preserving collaboration across institutions, integrating imaging and clinical text, and building interpretable AI systems for diagnosis, prognosis, and other clinical applications. The opportunity is especially relevant for candidates interested in computer science, biomedical engineering, medical science, and related AI-for-healthcare areas.

The post states that the lab is hiring for Fall 2026 / Spring 2027. Interested applicants are asked to send their CV and materials directly to [email protected]. No additional deadline, stipend amount, or formal eligibility checklist is provided in the post.

This is a strong fit for researchers with experience in machine learning, medical imaging, ophthalmology-related AI, or interdisciplinary translational research.
