PhD Researcher Opportunity

Job Title: PhD Researcher - Fibrosis Detection and Novel Radiotracers Development

Location: The Alfred Centre, Melbourne, Australia

Employment Type: Full-time, fixed-term appointment

About the Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic PhD researcher to join our international team at Monash University. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work on a cutting-edge project focused on the development of novel radiotracers for the detection of fibrosis.

About the Project

Fibrosis is a scarring process that can lead to distorted architecture and function of vital organs, including the heart, kidney, liver, and lung. Current imaging techniques for fibrosis are indirect and possess substantial limitations, making the need for accurate and sensitive diagnosis very high. Our project aims to develop a molecular imaging probe for direct and sensitive detection of fibrosis during the early stages of pathology.

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct research on the development of novel radiotracers for fibrosis detection
  • Collaborate with our international team to achieve project goals
  • Contribute to the development of a molecular imaging probe for fibrosis detection

Eligibility Requirements

Applicants must be able to demonstrate and present valid and current Australian work rights. Admission to a PhD at Monash University is also a requirement.

How to Apply

To express your interest in this PhD research opportunity, please provide a cover letter, CV, academic transcript(s), and proof of permanent residency or Australian citizenship.
