The Advanced Aortic Imaging for Clinical and Translational Research (AAI-CTR) lab at UW–Madison is hiring a Postdoctoral Research Associate to develop and validate next-generation imaging biomarkers for aortic disease. If you want your algorithms to change how patients are monitored and treated, not just generate papers (although there is plenty of that too), this is the role.

Why This Lab:

Our group has built several image analysis techniques that have completely changed how we view aortic disease. Specifically, vascular deformation mapping (VDM) is a technique that detects aortic deformation patterns invisible to conventional diameter measurement, and we are actively translating it from research tool to clinical product. Our work sits at the intersection of deep learning, image registration, and clinical decision-making, with active industry partnerships aimed at commercializing the methods we develop. Former trainees have moved into competitive industry positions, co-developed new IP, and gone on to train at other top-tier programs. This is a lab where technical innovation and clinical impact are not separate goals.

What You’ll Do:

Algorithm & Pipeline Development

• Design, train, and validate DL/ML models for aortic CT and MRI (segmentation, registration, shape/growth modeling, VDM pipelines).
• Build and optimize image-based pipelines for longitudinal aortic surveillance using large, multi-center datasets.
• Benchmark algorithms against clinical reference standards; lead external validation and reproducibility testing.

Clinical Translation

• Collaborate directly with cardiovascular surgeons, cardiologists, and radiologists to define clinically meaningful performance targets.
• Advance investigational tools toward real-world use: workflow integration, reliability testing, and documentation aligned with regulatory and commercial pathways.
• Apply novel analysis methods to large patient populations (UW and multi-center cohorts) to generate evidence that supports clinical adoption.

Data & Project Leadership

• Curate, organize, and manage large clinical imaging datasets and associated outcomes data.
• Mentor and collaborate with trainees across clinical, engineering, and physics backgrounds.
• Lead manuscript preparation, conference abstracts, and presentations; build your independent publication record.

Required Qualifications

• Ph.D. (or equivalent) in Biomedical Engineering, Electrical/Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Medical Physics, or a closely related quantitative field.
• Hands-on experience with medical image analysis on CT and/or MRI.
• Strong AI/DL skill set: proficiency in Python and common ML/DL frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow); experience training and evaluating models on large imaging datasets.
• Experience with core medical imaging tasks: segmentation, registration, or 3D model/shape analysis, transfer learning. Interest in deformation or longitudinal analysis is a plus.
• Track record of scientific productivity (peer-reviewed publications, conference papers) and strong written/oral communication.
• Genuine interest in clinical translation, meaning building tools clinicians will actually use, not just publishing methods papers.

Preferred

• Prior work with vascular or cardiovascular imaging (aorta, aneurysm/dissection, cardiac CT/MR).
• Experience with image registration or statistical shape/deformation modeling.
• Familiarity with database tools and good data engineering practices for imaging research.
• Comfort working in multi-disciplinary teams and collaborating closely with clinicians.
• Creative, independent problem-solving mindset: able to prototype, test, and iterate quickly.

Commitment & Environment

We are looking for someone who can commit to at least 18–24 months. Meaningful translational research takes time: developing a method, validating it rigorously, and publishing the results is not a short-term endeavor. In return, you will work in a highly collaborative environment spanning Radiology, Surgery, Cardiology, and Medical Physics at UW–Madison, with direct access to large clinical datasets and a PI who is invested in your long-term career trajectory.

Work Authorization

Candidates who already hold valid U.S. work authorization are preferred, including F-1 OPT and STEM OPT. We are open to sponsoring H-1B visas for exceptional candidates, though candidates who do not require immediate employer-sponsored work authorization will have an advantage given current processing timelines.

This role will be instrumental in leveraging data to drive strategic insights, optimize operations, and support innovation across our standards-based solutions. The ideal candidate will have a strong analytical mindset, experience with large datasets, and a passion for solving complex business problems using data.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Other duties may be assigned.

• Design, develop, and deploy predictive and prescriptive models and machine learning algorithms using Microsoft Azure ML, Power Platform, Python, and other relevant tools
• Ability to drive unified data analytics (prescriptive and predictive), and leverage tools such as Power BI, Azure Synapse, OneLake.
• Collaborate with cross-functional technology, product, and business teams to understand data needs, translate them into algorithms and analytical solutions.Need to be able to deliver solutions to production.
• Demonstrated expertise in modeling of unstructured, semi-structured and structured data.
• Analyze large datasets to uncover trends, patterns, and insights that inform business decisions
• Visualize data insights using dashboards and reports to communicate findings to stakeholders.
• Present findings and recommendations to technical and non-technical audiences
• Provide technical direction and best practices for modeling, data engineering, and analytics
• Establish good data management practices including data governance and MDM.
• Establish standards for data quality, model validation, predictive and prescriptive analytics
• Stay current with industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in data science and analytics.

SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITIES

While this position may not initially have supervisory responsibilities, this role is expected to provide technical leadership in the area of data science and data analytics. This person is also be expected to collaborate across GS1 US and lead cross-functional teams as needed.

EDUCATION and/or EXPERIENCE

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or related field is preferred
• 5+ years of hands-on experience with manipulating large data sets, identifying patterns, and developing inference and regression models that can be implemented. Digital supply chain and e-Commerce experience is strongly preferred
