Scientist Position in Metabolic, Muscle and Cardiometabolic MRI at DLR Institute of Aerospace Medicine German Aerospace Center in Germany

At the DLR Institute of Aerospace Medicine in Cologne, Germany, there is an opening for a Scientist (f/m/d) in Metabolic, Muscle and Cardiometabolic Magnetic Resonance Imaging. The role sits at the intersection of human physiology, space medicine, metabolism and physical performance, and advanced MRI / PET-MRI imaging.

The successful candidate will contribute to cutting-edge human studies using state-of-the-art 3T MRI and PET/MRI systems, including work in a unique research facility. Responsibilities include developing innovative imaging methods, integrating MRI into metabolic intervention and bed rest studies, and collaborating with international scientific and clinical partners.

The post is especially relevant for candidates interested in translational research, metabolic imaging, and quantitative imaging methodology. The announcement welcomes applicants from diverse backgrounds such as medicine, biomedical sciences, physics, sports sciences, radiological technology, and engineering.

What is offered includes an internationally visible research environment, no clinical night or on-call duties, strong interdisciplinary collaboration, and opportunities for scientific qualification, including PhD/Habilitation. This appears to be a research scientist employment opportunity rather than a scholarship or studentship call.
