A full-time position is available in our Bioengineering Laboratory, Department of Orthopaedics, Brown University / Rhode Island Hospital for a programmer/bioengineer. The responsibilities for this position primarily include programming, image analysis and data management for ongoing studies of musculoskeletal joint mechanics. The ideal candidate will have an extremely strong mathematical background, experience with image analysis (e.g. Mimics), Geomagic, MATLAB, C++ and OpenInventor, or comparable packages and capabilities as well as a master’s degree in medical imaging or bioengineering, computer science, or engineering. The candidate will work in a unique environment along side undergraduate and graduate students in the Brown University Biomedical Engineering program, medical students and residents in the Department of Orthopaedics, as well clinical and research faculty. The candidate will work directly with the principal investigator/scientist and his collaborators, which include computer scientists, evolutionary biologists, bioengineers and orthopaedic surgeons.
The ideal candidate will have experience in musculoskeletal imaging and biomechanics. Work experience with orthopedic faculty and researchers is high beneficial.
Qualifications
Master's degree in biomedical imaging/bioengineering and/or experience in a bioengineering research lab, with an emphasis on quantitative image analysis and experimental data acquisition. Work experience in orthopaedic research would be a plus.
Strong computer skills especially in image processing software (e.g. Image J, AMIRA), engineering design (e.g. ProEngineer, AutoCAD, SolidWorks), programming (e.g. MATLAB, C), data acquisition (e.g. Labview, Microcontrollers) and statistical analysis (e.g. SAS, SPSS, PRISM).
If interested please send a resume with contact information of three references to:
