Positions: Scientific Programmers
Location: Department of Radiation Oncology, Division of Bioinformatics
and Outcomes Research, Washington University School of Medicine, St.
Louis, Missouri
Our newly created Division of Bioinformatics and Outcomes Research has
immediate openings for scientifically-oriented programmers. We are
developing software systems for clinical and research use, including
storage and visualization of three-dimensional image datasets as well
as radiation therapy dose distributions (see our web-page at
http://radium.wustl.edu/cerr). The successful candidates would be
involved in various projects which require software development,
possibly including image visualization, data re-formatting,
optimization techniques, parallel processing, database construction,
and other aspects of radiation therapy treatment planning and outcomes
research. Strong computational and mathematical skills are needed.
The Dept. of Radiation Oncology has a large clinical service in the use
of radiation to treat cancer, as well as a large, active, academic
group involved in a full range of radiotherapy research activities.
Helpful experience would include scientific programming (any language),
matrix language programming (Python, Fortran90, Matlab, IDL, PVWave, or
similar), related course work, and a strong interest in scientific
programming. Beginning salary depends on experience and background.
The positions begin as soon as July 1, 2005.
Interested candidates should e-mail a resume, including GPA if recently
graduated or still a student. Contact: Joseph Deasy, Ph.D., Associate
Professor of Radiation Oncology and Director, Division of
