PhD Position in Lower-Field Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging:

100%, Zurich, fixed-term:

The CMR group at the Institute for Biomedical Engineering develops Magnetic Resonance (MR) technology and methods to assess the cardiovascular system. We devise the next generation of diagnostic tools for quantification of blood flow, organ perfusion, metabolism and function, tissue composition, microstructure and mechanics. The group exploits principles from physics, electrical engineering and computer science to design highly efficient and sensitive imaging and inference approaches to help guide diagnosis and treatment in cardiovascular patients.

Project background:

The project is based on previous and ongoing work of the group demonstrating benefits of ramping down high-performance clinical MR systems to lower static magnetic field strengths. In conjunction with advanced MR pulse sequence design and image reconstruction approaches, excellent image quality is achievable. Moreover, given the lower static field, options to stacked and concurrent imaging of electric and magnetic sources in the heart become possible. To this end, data for deep inference and digital twinning of the heart is obtained.

Job description:

Your profile:

You hold a Master of Science degree with first-class grades in:

electrical engineering

- biomedical engineering
