      Seeks Applicants at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor level
                                  in

                   Animal Imaging (broadly defined).



The Research Imaging Center (RIC) at the University of Texas Health 
Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSCSA) seeks applicants for faculty 
positions in its Animal Imaging Division.  The RIC is a 
department-level component of the UTHSCSA School of Medicine and 
specializes in the application of imaging techniques to human and 
animal neuroscience.  Translational imaging research (complementary 
use of human and animal models) integrated application of multiple 
imaging techniques and use of computational models in imaging 
research are areas of focus.  Techniques currently supported for 
animal imaging include PET, anatomical and functional MRI, MRS, 
multi-unit electrode recording, and optical reflectance imaging. 
Techniques currently supported for human imaging include PET, 
anatomical and functional MRI, MRS, ERPs, and TMS.

The Animal Imaging Division seeks a minimum of 3 full-time faculty 
with diverse backgrounds (e.g. one in MRI, one in PET, one in imaging 
related electrophysiology) and experience in inter-disciplinary 
collaborations. One of these positions will be the Chief of the 
Animal Imaging Division. The Division Chief will assume oversight of 
a Concord MicroPET, and two MRI/MRS systems: a 4.7T horizontal bore 
system, and a 7.0T vertical bore system.  All three imaging systems 
are housed within an animal facility immediately adjacent to the 
RIC's other imaging systems, laboratories, and offices.
