The Center for Magnetic Resonance and Optical Imaging is located in Stellar Chance Labs, behind the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Medicine and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. It is sandwiched between Currie Boulevard and Guardian Drive, where access to Stellar Chance is indirect through Blockley Hall.
The Penn campus is directly accessible by car via two local exits from Interstate 76, which in turn has easily negotiated linkages with I-95 from the south and North, via I-676 and from the Northeast and west by way of I-476.
Amtrak’s 30th Street Station is a short distance from the campus and provides rail access from other regions. The Philadelphia International Airport is located to the south, along I-95. SEPTA regional rail service departs across from each of the airport terminals and stops at the University City station, just across from the Penn Medical School campus.
The CMROI is lead under the leadership of Ravinder Reddy Ph.D. For a complete personnel list, including faculty and graduate students, please click here.
The University of Pennsylvania Medical Center is an Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer. Qualified female and minority candidates are encouraged to apply.
There are currently no open faculty positions on offer.
The Center for Magnetic Resonance and Optical Imaging in the Department of Radiology at the University of Pennsylvania will accept applications for several post-doc and research associate positions to develop and implement MRI techniques using multi-nuclear and spin-lock methods. The applicant should have a Ph.D. in biophysics/bioengineering or a related field. A successful candidate would possess outstanding writing and communication skills as demonstrated by a successful publication record.
Neuroimaging Pre- & Post-Doctoral Traineeship
An NIH sponsored training program is available for predoctoral and postdoctoral
training in neuroimaging, combining an understanding of central
nervous system organization and function, the biophysical basis for
the various imaging methodologies used to assess brain function in
vivo, and a familiarity with existing and potential clinical
applications of imaging methods to neurological and psychiatric
disorders. We are particularly seeking trainees interested in
using neuroimaging in animal models of neurological and psychiatric
disorders.
Qualified applicants are US Citizens or green card holders with
backgrounds in either biomedical or biophysical sciences. Trainees
will participate in research and receive dual mentoring from a
diverse group of preceptors with either methodological or
neuroscience expertise. Hands-on training is supplemented by
participation in seminar series covering translational neuroimaging,
image analysis, cognitive neuroscience, and neuroethics.
Individuals interested in applying as predocs or postdocs should
submit the following items to the Program Director,
John A. Detre,
MD
1) a recent c.v. which includes previous work experience,
2) a personal statement outlining their research interests and
reasons for pursuing this particular training opportunity and
3) a letter of introduction and recommendation from their training
director or doctoral committee chairperson.
The Center for Magnetic Resonance and Optical Imaging in the Department of Radiology at the University of Pennsylvania will accept applications for research technicians to conduct MRI experiments, manage protocols and maintain a website. Successful candidates would possess outstanding writing and communication skills. We encourage candidates that plan to pursue graduate school in health-related sciences or medical school to apply.
