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 (available in HIE cases) and radiomic features predictive of school-age MRI extracted. Machine learning algorithms of radiomic features predictive of future brain development will be developed.


Furthermore, a novel predictive algorithm of School-age neuropsychological outcome will be developed combining radiomic model of brain development, with qualitative neonatal MRI findings.

Skills/Qualifications

The primary focus of the Post-Doctoral Researcher will be research however a particular emphasis during this stage should include;

  • • To manage and conduct a specific programme of research and scholarship.
  • • To independently identify research objectives and potential funding sources and to prepare and write bids for funding proposals.
  • • To have a track record in securing external funding, including own salary.
  • • To disseminate the outcomes of the research, including peer-reviewed academic publications of international standing.
  • • To take a leading role in the further development of the research programme and in seeking and pursuing appropriate external funding.
  • • To participate fully in the wider research and scholarly activities of the Research Centre, School and College.
  • • To have some teaching and mentoring duties.
  • • To supervise post-graduate research students as supervisor or co-supervisor, as appropriate.
  • • To mentor and assist students and early-stage researchers in the research group, School and College.
  • • To take responsibility for, manage and conduct administrative and management tasks associated with the research programme.
  • • To engage in appropriate training and professional development opportunities as required by the Principal Investigator, School or College.
  • • To carry out any additional duties as may reasonably be required within the general scope and level of the post.
  • • To conduct a specified programme of research under the supervision and direction of a Principal Investigator/Project Leader.
  • • To engage in appropriate training and professional development opportunities as required by the Principal Investigator, School or College in order to develop research skills and competencies.
  • • To gain experience in grant writing.
  • • To engage in the dissemination of the results of the research in which they are engaged, as directed by, with the support of and under the supervision of a Principal Investigator.
  • • To become familiar with the publication process.
  • • To acquire generic and transferable skills (including project management, business skills and postgraduate mentoring/supervision).
  • • To engage in the wider research and scholarly activities of the research group, School or College.
  • • To interact closely with postgraduate research students who are studying for a Masters or a PhD and possibly have an agreed role in supporting these students in their day to day research in conjunction with an academic supervisor.
  • • To carry out administrative work to support the programme of research.
  • • To contribute to costing research grant proposals and assist in the financial management of a research project.

Specific Requirements

Essential Criteria

  • • A PhD in a field related to medical image analysis, such as computer science, biomedical engineering, applied mathematics, neuroscience, biophysics or a related discipline.
