Job description
The Chair of Biological Imaging ( CBI ) at the Technical University of Munich ( TUM ) and the Institute of Biological and Medical Imaging (IBMI) at Helmholtz Munich are an integrated, multi-disciplinary research unit, which provide bioengineering solutions to urgent societal needs. CBI scientists develop next-generation imaging and sensing methods to measure previously inaccessible properties of living systems, hence, catalyzing breakthroughs in biology, medicine, and the environment. Comprising 11 inter-disciplinary laboratories and scientists from more than 25 countries, CBI offers state-of-the-art infrastructure for innovative research and an ideal environment to accelerate your career.

The Mission:
Ultra-wideband raster-scan optoacoustic mesoscopy (RSOM) has shown unprecedented resolutions while non-invasively assessing human skin anatomy and vasculature in vivo through the whole skin depth. The importance and relevance of RSOM for visualization of pathophysiological skin parameters was made obvious when Nature Biomedical Engineering featured the first RSOM images of human skin on its cover (Nature Biomedical Engineering, 2017). We recently demonstrated RSOM`s ability to quantify both differences in vascular morphology between benign and malignant skin lesions (Nature communications 2022), as well as changes in vascular morphology within psoriasis plaques in response to treatment (Science Translational Medicine 2022). The successful candidate will work in further development of RSOM to achieve faster imaging speed, deeper penetration depth and more tissue information for various biological and clinical applications.
