Dear all,

The Queensland Brain Institute's (QBI) microscopy facility is looking to hire a senior microscopy services officer. This person would be responsible for maintaining the advanced systems within the facility and will be working with researchers for training on imaging and image analysis techniques. We are seeking someone who has significant experience in biomedical imaging and image analysis and has demonstrable competence in a variety of microscopy techniques.

The QBI microscopy facility consists of over 20 advanced instruments including automated imaging systems for bright-field and wide-field fluorescence, slide scanners, laser-scanning confocal microscopy, two-photon microscopy, spinning disk confocal microscopy, TIRF, FLIM, FRET and super-resolution imaging, including SIM and PALM/STORM systems. We have dedicated high-end workstations for image analysis (Imaris, Zen, NIS, Neurolucida, CellProfiler), along with a dedicated remote server for Huygens deconvolution. Data storage is managed by a custom engineered elastic-compute cloud-based instance of OMERO (Open Microscopy Environment) with petabytes of next generation storage and gigabytes of IO per second, which is being actively improved to assist our users with remote visualisation and custom analysis tools. 

The link to the job advert is below. Please apply before 12th March.
