Job Description
24 months, Fixed Term, whole-time Post INFANT Research Centre is now accepting applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher to work on the Sophie project (School-age Outcome Prediction using radiomic imaging algorithm in Hypoxic Ischaemic Encephalopathy). The Sophie project aims to develop a Neonatal MRI Biomarker for newborns with Hypoxic Ischaemic encephalopathy that is predictive of altered brain development and cognitive school-age outcomes. To achieve this, we are performing school-age MRIs and neurocognitive testing on a cohort of children who had HIE as newborns, and matched controls. The children with a background of HIE during the newborn period also had a neonatal MRI performed. Quantitative analysis of the school age MRIs will be performed, and MR features associated with school-age neurocognitive outcomes will be identified. These significant features will used to determine regions of interest (ROIs). The ROIs on the School age scans will be projected onto the neonatal MRIs (...
