The Department of Medical Sciences and Technology at Indian Institute of Technology Madras is inviting applications for MS and PhD positions for the Spring 2026 session (Jan-May 2026). The research group, led by Assistant Professor Rupsa Bhattacharjee, focuses on medical imaging, particularly MRI and PET, AI-driven biomarker discovery, and quantitative health research. The lab works at the intersection of physics, image acquisition and analysis, and computational tools to address real-world healthcare challenges. Research areas include musculoskeletal and neuro MRI, PET imaging, image processing, deep learning applications in medical imaging, and health informatics. The group leverages clinical data and quantitative imaging to develop and evaluate biomarkers for disease progression, especially in osteoarthritis and stroke. Applicants should have a strong background in engineering, science, or medicine, and a keen interest in medical imaging and AI. The application process is through the IIT Madras Research Admission Portal, with the deadline on 31st October 2025. Funding details are not specified, but IIT Madras typically offers fellowships for eligible research scholars.
