We’re working with a cutting-edge precision medicine start-up that spun out of John Hopkins university and is pioneering the future of targeted cancer treatment. The company has been developing advanced software and services to support imaging and dosimetry for radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT), a transformative approach that delivers radiation directly to tumours with unprecedented accuracy.
Their mission is simple but bold: to make cancer curable by enabling simplified, accurate, and standardised dosimetry, empowering clinicians to deliver personalised, evidence-based radiation doses for every patient.
🔬 The Opportunity
We are seeking a Research Scientist to lead and contribute to the development of new technologies and methodologies that advance the clinical use of radiopharmaceutical therapy. This role combines applied research, algorithm development, and collaborative innovation across imaging physics, dosimetry, and software tools.
This is an outstanding opportunity to work on ground breaking projects that will help redefine the standard of cancer care.
📌 Key Responsibilities
- Lead and support development of quantitative SPECT methods using data from conventional and novel scanner geometries.
- Design and validate algorithms for image- and organ-based radiation dose calculation.
- Develop and apply AI and machine learning methods to image reconstruction and dosimetry.
- Collaborate with software engineers, clinicians, and external partners to implement methods in products and services.
- Contribute to scientific publications, white papers, and conference presentations.
- Support documentation for clinical validation and regulatory submissions.
- Stay current with emerging trends and research in the field.
✅ What We’re Looking For
Required:
- PhD in Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering, Nuclear Medicine, or related field.
- Hands-on experience with quantitative imaging, radiopharmaceutical therapy, or internal dosimetry.
- Proficiency in scientific programming (e.g., Python, C) and data analysis.
- Solid understanding of medical imaging modalities (SPECT, PET, CT).
- Strong organisational skills and ability to work effectively in a remote environment.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Preferred:
- Familiarity with nuclear medicine clinical workflows and imaging protocols.
- Published research in image reconstruction, AI, dosimetry, or RPT.
- Experience with regulated medical device development or FDA submissions.
🌟 Why Join
- 🌍 100% remote – work from anywhere.
- 🧬 Make a real impact on the future of cancer care.
- 🤝 Work with a collaborative, mission-driven team of leading experts.
- 🕐 Flexible hours and dynamic, meaningful projects.
- 💼 Competitive salary and benefits package.
