      <description>Department of Biomedical Engineering, Case Western Reserve University Schools of Engineering and Medicine

We are seeking 2-3 postdoctoral imaging researchers to develop new translational applications in cardiovascular imaging. Successful applicants will join our team of biomedical engineers, computer scientists, cardiologists, and industrial researchers. One project will advance CT imaging to include reliable perfusion measurements of myocardial tissue using the latest Philips Healthcare CT imaging technology. This advancement will allow CT to become the only imaging modality providing a “one stop shop” including vascular anatomy, vessel wall staging, and tissue perfusion. This will be exceedingly important for managing acute patients in a timely, cost effective, and reliable manner. Other positions involve optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging of coronary arteries. OCT provides microscopic imaging of the blood vessel wall enabling unique assessment of plaque vulnerability. It also enables assessment of stent tissue coverage, unique information for the 100s of thousands of stent implantations done yearly in the US. We are seeking persons to develop new image analysis applications which can be translated to clinical solutions. Our group has a broad base of funding from the Philips Healthcare Global Advanced Imaging Innovation Center at Case Western Reserve University and University Hospitals of Cleveland, Ohio Third Frontier, Cardiovascular Imaging Core Lab, Coulter Foundation, and NIH.

Applicants are expected to have a PhD in engineering or related field and knowledge of medical imaging and image analysis. Specific knowledge of OCT, CT, perfusion, and/or cardiac imaging is a plus. However, we will consider outstanding individuals with no previous biomedical imaging experience but publications demonstrating knowledge of image analysis methods. A unique aspect of our work will be accurate validation using large animal models of coronary artery disease, providing ample opportunity for publications. We want a candidate who will communicate well with our diverse, dynamic group; aggressively pursue research; and publish at a high rate.

Applicants should send an email stating why they should be selected, curriculum vitae, and contact information for at least three references to Dr. Wilson at: david.wilson@case.edu.

      <description>Molecular Radiation Biology; Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine.  

The Department of Radiation Oncology of Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine is urgently looking for three postdoc fellows to join Dr. Junran Zhang’s group. The main interest of Dr. Zhang’s lab is to understand how the repair of DNA double strand breaks (DSB) protects against carcinogenesis and how the disrupted DSB repair contributes to sensitivity of cancer cells to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The DNA damage response proteins which Dr. Zhang’s group is interested are BRCA1, RPA, RAD51, ATR, 53BP1, BLM and others. In addition to investigating DNA DSB response pathways, Dr.Zhang lab  recently started a new avenue of investigation into the relationship of NEDD4-1 and AKT in basic cell signaling. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism by which NEDD4-1 activtes  AKT and its implication for cancer therapy is the other focus in Dr.Zhang’s lab. The candiates are requried with a PhD degree in cancer/cell/molecular biology, biochemistry or related field and with a sound &amp; demonstrated expertise in tissue culture, protein biochemistry &amp; molecular biology technique and immunofluorescence microscopy. The candiates with experience of mouse work is also encourged to apply. Effective verbal and written communication skills will be required. Annual salary will be determined depending on qualifications and experience.

      <description>Case Western Reserve University announces a nationwide search to recruit a new Dean for the Weatherhead School of Management.

The Weatherhead School of Management has received international acclaim for developing transformational ideas, innovative learning experiences, and for educating leaders who emerge ready to add immediate value to their organizations, their communities, and society. Weatherhead was first to incorporate Manage by Designing and leadership assessment and development into an MBA curriculum, first to implement PhD programs in organizational behavior and operations research, first to launch a specialty masters program in organizational development, and first to create a doctoral program aimed at practicing executives.

Housed in an award-winning building designed by acclaimed architect Frank Gehry, the school welcomes more than 200 undergraduate and 800 graduate students to the heart of University Circle in Cleveland, Ohio, one of the largest concentrations of educational, scientific, medical and cultural institutions in the United States.

Case Western Reserve University is one of the nation&apos;s top universities and an independent, leading research institute.  Originally founded in 1826, Case Western Reserve receives nearly $400 million in external research awards each year.  The University enrolls approximately 10,000 in its eight schools and colleges; employs more than 2,600 faculty; and, has an endowment of $1.4 billion.

The Search Committee seeks a proven leader who has relevant experience and credentials that merit appointment to one of the school&apos;s departments.  Individuals with a strong leadership record who can demonstrate significant accomplishment in business, government, or philanthropic organizations will also be considered.

While applications and nominations will be accepted until a new Dean is selected, interested parties are encouraged to send their resumes and a letter of interest to the address below by January 15 to receive optimal consideration.

      <title>Senior Research Associate</title>
      <link>http://blog.case.edu/human-resources/employment/academic/index.html#033922</link>
      <description>The Case Center for Imaging Research (CCIR) invites applications for a Senior Research Associate position in perfusion imaging with particular focus on perfusion modeling of the liver, and non-Cartesian acquisitions and reconstructions. The successful applicant would join our multi-disciplinary research group in the development and optimization of perfusion acquisition and analysis methodologies and application to liver imaging. The work will allow the candidate to expand their MR knowledge in multiple directions – acquisition, signal processing/analysis, application development and clinical use.

The CCIR is a state of the art imaging center developing cutting edge MR imaging technology, with strong ties to the Case School of Medicine and Department of Biomedical Engineering. The center includes research dedicated 1.5T (32 channels, Siemens Espree) and 4T whole body human scanners and multiple 1.5 T and 3.0 T clinical systems that are also available for research (including a 32 channel Siemens Avanto and an 18 channel Siemens Verio). There are two (7.0T/9.4T) Bruker Biospec superconducting in vivo imaging/spectroscopy systems for animal imaging. The faculty and environment is diverse and dynamic, with members involved in basic MRI research with applications/translational and clinical interests (i.e. Drs. Duerk, Griswold, Gulani). The lab includes researchers involved in MR hardware design, MR acquisition and reconstruction methodology development, molecular imaging, and MR contrast agent synthesis. The imaging research program at Case has a long and successful history of student and post-doc mentoring. The group is collegial and provides a truly friendly work environment.

Persons with interests in MRI acquisition techniques, post processing or image analysis methodologies are encouraged to apply. A Ph.D. and an imaging related thesis is required, along with 3 years post-graduate experience (preferably at least one in MRI). Programming experience in Matlab, experience with the Siemens IDEA/ICE environment, and familiarity with perfusion acquisition and post-processing methodologies would be advantageous, as would an ability to present scientific work in written and oral form. The appropriate applicant would have considerable freedom to develop their own research interests as well, if they fit the interests of the group.

Case Western Reserve University is an Equal Opportunity Employer encouraging excellence through diversity.  Qualified woman and minority candidates are encouraged to apply.

Applicants should submit a CV, a statement of career interests and three references to: vikas@case.edu

   H.  Sound communication skills, both oral and written. 
   I.  Ability and the initiative to engage in self-education to stay current in clinical biostatistics.

Technical Skills:  Requires extensive familiarity with modern software systems used in biostatistics, including SAS and R, and the aptitude to learn other statistical software packages quickly.  Experience in managing and manipulating datasets using these packages is also required. General knowledge of the research designs used in medical research methods and the more common analytic strategies of biostatistical science, especially in the use of statistical models to understand how continuous, binary, ordered categorical, and censored outcomes are associated with multiple predictors, whether continuous or categorical. 

Working Conditions:  The Center for Clinical Investigation is a unit of the CWRU School of Medicine.
The CCI makes tangible efforts to see that its members receive adequate time and support for life-long learning. This includes taking courses, attending seminars in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, and attending local and national meetings relevant to the position.
Most research projects are collaborative efforts by research teams; therefore meetings are held throughout CWRU.  Some projects may be centered at other NE Ohio sites or are multi-site studies and thus might involve travel away from CWRU and Cleveland.

Please send a cover letter, brief description of research experience and interests, curriculum vitae and contact information for three references via email to Denise Babineau at denise.babineau@case.edu.

This includes reviewing data integrity checks (e.g. logic and range checks) and standards for clinical database security and confidentiality (e.g. archival procedures, access restrictions, adherence to CCI/CWRU policies and federal regulations).<br />
  C.  Data Analysis – The Research Associate will take the lead role within their investigative teams in analyzing study data using modern data analysis strategies, methods, and software chosen and adapted to fit the task at hand. Techniques will run the gamut of statistical modeling methods, from routine but essential programming tasks (e.g. creating analytic datasets, summarizing data descriptively, and producing basic reports) to attending to non-independent and missing data issues, assessing model adequacy and influential cases, and creating custom statistical graphics and tables. If necessary, the Biostatistician will research and implement non-standard approaches to statistical approaches in the literature and if needed, will consult with more senior biostatisticians for additional direction. <br />
  D.  Research Reports – The Research Associate will assist in writing and preparing research reports, including internal documentation, academic publication, and scientific presentations. This includes sharing in the rewards and responsibilities of authorship, when appropriate.<br />
  E.  Mentor. The Research Associate will be expected to provide informal mentorship to junior clinical investigators, residents, fellows, and content-area graduate students with regard to the conduct of clinical research, statistical methodology, and applied data analysis techniques. </p>

<p><strong>Requirements:</strong>  <br />
Experience – Although candidates with no experience will be considered, the ideal candidate will have at least 1-2 years of experience in a biostatistics consulting group within a biomedical research environment, preferably within a hospital or university setting.</p>

<p>Education/Licensing – This position requires at least a Masters degree in statistics or biostatistics.</p>

<p><strong>Essential Skills:</strong>   <br />
   A.  Excellent knowledge of the core methods and issues comprising modern medical statistics.<br />
   B.  Excellent programming skills and practices using SAS and R or Splus.<br />
   C.  The ability to juggle several complex projects simultaneously.<br />
   D.  Detailed oriented.<br />
   E.  Highly organized, with the initiative, confidence, decisiveness, and technical aptitude to work with limited or no supervision.<br />
   F.  Ability to identify problems and solve them pragmatically.<br />
   G.  Excellent interpersonal skills and the desire and ability to be a strong team member within diverse research teams. <br />
   H.  Sound communication skills, both oral and written. <br />

      <title>Postdoctoral Researchers</title>
      <link>http://blog.case.edu/human-resources/employment/academic/index.html#033747</link>
      <description>Cardiac Imaging     
We are seeking postdoctoral researchers to help complete a comprehensive cardiac imaging approach with a team of radiologists, cardiologists, and academic and industrial researchers. The project will advance CT imaging to include reliable perfusion measurements of myocardial tissue using the latest CT technology with fast, wide field of view imaging. This added component will allow CT to become the only imaging modality providing a “one stop shop” including vascular anatomy, vessel wall staging, and tissue perfusion. This will become exceedingly important for managing acute patients in a timely, cost effective, and reliable manner. The position is an academic appointment at Case Western Reserve University within the Philips Healthcare Global Advanced Imaging Innovation Center at Case Western Reserve University and University Hospitals of Cleveland.
 
The successful candidate should have knowledge of medical imaging and image analysis. Specific knowledge of CT, perfusion, and/or cardiac imaging is a plus. A unique aspect of our work will be accurate validation using large animal models of coronary artery disease, providing ample opportunity for publications on all technical issues including beam hardening correction, image registration, perfusion model, low dose acquisitions, advanced reconstruction, etc. We want a candidate who will communicate well with our diverse, dynamic group; aggressively pursue research; and publish at a high rate.
 
Applicants should send an email stating why they should be selected, curriculum vitae, and contact information for at least three references to Dr. Wilson at: david.wilson@case.edu. 

In Employment, as in education, Case Western Reserve University is committed to Equal Opportunity and Diversity.  Women, veterans, members of underrepresented minority groups, and individuals with disabilities are encouraged to apply.

recently refurbished Burrell Schmidt telescope at Kitt Peak, and
several members of the department are active participants in the Sloan
Digital Sky Survey III consortium. In addition, the CWRU Department of
Physics has strengths in particle astrophysics and cosmology. CWRU is
committed to both undergraduate and graduate education and research
mentoring, and we seek candidates who will share that commitment. The
normal teaching load for the department is one class per semester.

Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in astronomy or a related field, and
demonstrate excellence in both research and teaching through a
distinguished record of publication and educational activity.  At the
Associate Professor (Professor) level, applicants should also have a
strong national (international) scientific reputation.  Applications
should include a curriculum vitae, a statement of research plans, a
statement of teaching philosophy and experience, and contact
information for three references. Reference letters will be solicited
directly by the search committee as needed.  Electronic applications

      <title>Postdoctoral Position</title>
      <link>http://blog.case.edu/human-resources/employment/academic/index.html#033575</link>
      <description>A postdoctoral position is available in the Department of Biochemistry in the School of Medicine at Case Western Reserve University. Our investigations are focused  in two areas of molecular endocrinology: (a) insulin, insulin signaling, and diabetes mellitus; and (b) sex determination and infertility. Studies in sex determination seek to elucidate structure-function relationships in the HMG box of SRY and the DM motif, a novel Zn module. These domains bind in the minor groove of DNA. SRY, encoded by the mammalian Y chromosome, functions as the testis-determining factor to direct the differentiation of the bipotential gonad in embryogenesis. Insight into structure-function relationships is provided by a confluence of approaches, exploiting clinical mutations associated with chromosomal sex reversal to examine mechanisms of gene regulation in tissue culture. DM factors, broadly conserved among metazoans, function downstream of SRY in mammals wherein a family of homologues participate in spematogenesis (in males) and in the general specification of pattern (in both sexes). A model is provided by the Drosophila Doublesex factor, the prototype of the DM family. Sex-specific splicing of the Doublesex mRNA leads to male- and female-specific isoforms with distinct gene-regulatory properties. Structural studies of these isoforms provide a foundation for analysis of function in transgenic flies with application to the neurogenetic specification of courtship behaviors.

The applicant is expected to be highly independent and be capable of designing experiments and conducting hypothesis based research projects. The candidate should have a strong background in cell biology, molecular biology, and biochemistry. Salary will be commensurate with experience.

Please submit your CV, brief statement of research interest, and contact information for three references via E-mail to Dr. Michael A. Weiss at: maw21@case.edu.

Case Western Reserve University is an Equal Opportunity Employer encouraging excellence through diversity.  Qualified woman and minority candidates are encouraged to apply.</description>

      <description>A postdoctoral position is available in the Department of Pharmacology in the School of Medicine at Case Western Reserve University.  Currently, the laboratory is funded by NIH and a private foundation that focuses on Usher Syndrome. Our research is focused on retinal degenerative disorders.  With the goal of elucidating the disease mechanisms, we study the process of photoreceptor morphogenesis and maintenance in vertebrate animals.  Our laboratory pioneers real-time imaging of proteins and small molecules within the retina, and is equipped with a state of the art confocal/two-photon microscope.  Also, our research heavily depends on the cell culture system to biochemically study the components required for photoreceptor morphogenesis/maintenance.

The applicant is expected to be highly independent and be capable of designing experiments and conducting hypothesis based research projects.  The candidate should have a strong background in cell biology, molecular biology, and biochemistry. Knowledge of fluorescence microscopy is favorable, although not necessary.  Salary will be commensurate with experience and will adhere to current NIH guidelines.

Please submit your CV, brief statement of research interest, and contact information for three references via E-mail to Dr. Yoshikazu Imanishi (yxi19@case.edu).

      <description>Postdoctoral/Research Associate: Metabolic Systems Modeling and Analysis in Cystic Fibrosis 

Description
The Center for Modeling Integrated Metabolic Systems (MIMS, http://casemed.case.edu/mims/) at Case Western Reserve University has a postdoctoral research position available immediately. The research projects of the MIMS Center combine mathematical modeling, computer simulation, and in vivo experimentation to quantify relationships between cellular metabolism and physiological responses of tissue-organ systems and the whole body. The overall goal is to analyze dynamic metabolic data and identify mechanisms regulating metabolism in health and disease (e.g., cystic fibrosis) in response to chronic or acute stimuli (e.g., exercise). This position involves development of computational methods for evaluation of dynamic, multi-scale models of biochemical networks and physiological systems, and for testing hypotheses on the mechanisms responsible for altered energy metabolism, especially in cystic fibrosis.

Qualification
This position requires Ph.D.-level research experience in computer modeling and simulation of metabolic systems, or more generally, of chemical reaction and transport processes of biological systems. The Research Associate position is well suited for a Ph.D. with experience in model simulation of spatially lumped and distributed systems with FORTRAN and/or MATLAB.  In employment as in education, Case Western Reserve University is committed to Equal Opportunity and Diversity.
