Open post-doctoral position in Ultrafast Optics and Imaging
The Ultrafast Optics Laboratory at Boston University focuses on the development of novel customized fiber laser sources for various applications, in particular biomedical imaging and spectroscopy. We are looking for a highly motivated post-doctoral candidate for the development of an ultrafast optical imaging system to explore and characterize optical pathways for neuroscience applications.
The ideal candidate should be interested in interdisciplinary research at the interface of ultrafast optics and biomedical optical imaging. An experimental background in optical techniques and interest in neurophotonics is desired.
If interested, please contact Prof. Sander at msander@bu.edu. Please include a curriculum vitae (with publication list), a statement of research interest and your fit for the position as well as the contact information for three references.
