[Imageworld] PhD vacancy at King's College London

There is a vacant PhD studentship in Intelligent Medical Imaging at the
Division of Imaging Sciences and Biomedical Engineering, King's College
London & Department of Computer Science, Imperial College London

As part of an exciting new research project, applications are invited
for a PhD studentship on an innovative programme of research in
developing intelligent algorithms for medical imaging in the presence of
motion. The studentship is part of a 5 year EPSRC programme grant
initiative between King's College London, Imperial College London,
University College London and the Institute of Cancer Research that aims
to change the way medical imaging is currently used. The objectives of
the project are to extract information that can be used to inform
diagnosis and guide therapy directly from the measurements of imaging
devices, particularly MRI scanners. The research will be carried out as
a collaboration between computer scientists, imaging scientists and
clinicians.

The project will be co-supervised by Dr Andy King from King's College
London and Prof. Daniel Rueckert from Imperial College London. The
student can expect to spend some time based at both institutions.
Therefore this is an exciting opportunity to work within two
internationally-leading research groups and in a cross-disciplinary
environment.

Applicants for the PhD studentship should have, or be predicted to have,
a first or upper-second class degree in physics, computer science,
mathematics, engineering or similar scientific subject. Applicants with
an MSc. or MPhil. or equivalent are also invited. Relevant project or
other experience would be an advantage.

Further details on the Division of Imaging Sciences at King's College
London are available online at
http://www.kcl.ac.uk/schools/medicine/research/imaging/. Information on
the Department of Computer Science at Imperial College London are
available at http://biomedic.doc.ic.ac.uk/index.php.

The PhD studentship will include bursaries and tuition fees for 3 years
for EU students. Applications and informal enquiries should be made to
Dr Andrew King (andrew.king@kcl.ac.uk).
