Dear colleagues,

Mint Labs is looking to fill a R&D position on neuroimaging processing. Mint Labs is a multi-disciplinary science and engineering start-up. The company's mission is to develop technologies to better understand the human brain and the diseases that affect it. Our primary focus is on neuroimaging methods, including MRI, that yield insights into the living brain.

Context

The challenge is to develop analysis systems for multidimensional medical datasets that include imaging. Mint Labs is a SaaS platform that focus on integrating diverse clinical, imaging, genomic, and other data to better evaluate disease progression and response to interventions.

You thrive in analyzing data, developing pipelines to process imaging data, and integrate multiple data points into meaningful group conclusions? You are experienced in volumetric, diffusion, rs-fMRI studies, and are not shy about Python, bash, R or whatever tool fits the work?

Objectives of the position

The position hinges on processing of very large databases. Important novelties of the project are:

Building predictive models to discriminate multiple pathologies in large inhomogeneous datasets.
Using and improving advanced connectomics and brain-parcellation techniques in dMRI / fMRI.
Support the interaction with several external research partners and clients to develop neuroimaging analysis

Desired profile

We are looking for a doctoral or post-doctoral fellow to hire in beginning of 2016. The ideal candidate would have some, but not all, of the following expertise and interests:

Experience in advanced processing of MRI, dMRI and fMRI
General knowledge of brain structure and function
Good communication skills to write high-impact neuroscience publications
Good computing skills, in particular with Python. Cloud computing experience is desired.

A great R&D environment

We're a growing, product-centric team located in Barcelona Spain.

We strive on solving hard problems with creative solutions, and have fun during the process - after all we are in Barcelona. As an engineer in our team, you will tackle the challenges that arise as we build a large-scale system for data processing and distribution. The scale at which our systems must operate requires highly-performing algorithms and data structures. Solving complex distributed systems and ensuring data security are essential.

We are looking for independent thinkers with a deep understanding of the problems we are solving who are not afraid to significantly influence how the system can be improved. We hire for people, not roles -- if you don't see an interesting job description but believe that you can add value to Mint Labs, we would love to hear from you.

In addition, the post-doc will interact closely with top researchers worldwide, using our platform.
