The PET Center / Radiology Department at the Yale School of Medicine invites applications for tenure-track assistant professor positions in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Successful candidates will be expected to teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in related areas, develop a research program in collaboration with an interdisciplinary team of faculty and secure research funding. Responsibilities may include the development, characterization and validation of novel imaging biomarkers with PET, pharmacokinetic modeling of novel radiopharmaceuticals, development of advanced image reconstruction algorithms for quantitative PET and PET/MR imaging and the development of deep learning methods to improve quantitative PET imaging. Yale School of Medicine educates and nurtures creative leaders in medicine and science, promoting curiosity and critical inquiry in an inclusive environment enriched by diversity. We advance discovery and innovation fostered by partnerships across the university, our local community, and the world. We care for patients with compassion, and commit to improving the health of all people. The Yale University PET Center located on Howard Avenue in New Haven, CT is a 22,000 sq. ft. facility established to advance the interests of Yale clinicians, scientists, and students in molecular imaging research. The Yale University PET Center is comprised of a technologically advanced radiochemistry laboratory engaged in the development and use of a rich set of PET radiopharmaceuticals labeled with the most common PET isotopes (11C, 15O, 13N, and 18F); and an imaging and data analysis section that oversees scanning procedures and optimizes data acquisition and analysis. The Yale University PET Center collaborates with other School of Medicine departments to provide educational opportunities for doctoral and postdoctoral trainees. Collaborations with industry partners serve to advance the use of molecular imaging in new medication discovery and the development of new PET radiopharmaceuticals. Current research interests focus on disorders of the central nervous system (CNS), oncology, cardiology, and diabetes.
