The Department of Radiology at UCSF has a position available for a Post-doctoral Associate in the Brain Networks Laboratory of Dr. Ashish Raj, a researcher in brain network modeling and machine vision. Our lab aims to develop advanced computational models and methods for visualization, analysis, quantification and processing of medical imaging data, especially neuroimaging data. The lab has faculty, researchers and students from the fields of computer science, electrical engineering, physics, applied mathematics and radiology. 

This Fellowship will be conducted under the supervision of Ashish Raj and will be supported from new NIH grants for developing graph-based models for dementia and of brain activity. Possible projects include:

• Graph models for progression of various neurological diseases in the brain
• Dynamical Systems
• Computational Neuroscience, neuron models
• Genomics, informatics and spatial transcriptomics
• fMRI, EEG and MEG data analysis and computational modeling
• Graph-based models and representations for neuroimaging data
• Combined modeling of functional and structural brain networks
• Human brain Connectomics
• Software design and engineering

The Raj laboratory provides an exceptional multi-disciplinary research environment and excellent training opportunities. We are a young, energetic and diverse lab that welcomes new ideas. We are located at the vibrant Parnassus campus in the heart of San Francisco, with easy access to world-class scientific, medical, cultural and entertainment facilities. San Francisco is one of the most iconic cities in the United States, home to one of the world’s grant centers of science, technology and entrepreneurship.
