Applications Scientists
Employment Opportunity
Fluorescence Microscopy
Boston Massachusetts Area
The Scanalytics division of CSPI is looking to add to our team of
Applications Scientists. The new position is for our Fluorescence
Microscopy product line which includes software-based instruments for
performing high-resolution, quantitative 3D fluorescence microscopy.
As this product line has experienced tremendous growth in the past few
months, we find that we would like to add to our pre- and post- sales
applications team so that we may continue to provide the high level of
support that has contributed to our success.
The position will require that you interact with potential and current
customers to answer their questions on how the Scanalytics products may be
configured to be most appropriate for their work and to perform benchmark
studies. You will occasionally be called upon to perform installations of
the instruments, to deliver technical presentations to interested
audiences, and to travel with sales representatives (domestic and
international) to answer technical questions. Your experience will be
needed to help in the design of new products and to write technical
bulletins regarding current products.
The ideal candidate will bring several years of hands-on experience with
biological fluorescence microscopy, especially computer-based (PC)
instruments as applied in this work. A good working knowledge of
scientific-grade low-light cameras and microscope automation equipment is
also desired. The position will involve approximately 50% travel away
from our Boston-area office. A BS in the life sciences or biomedical
engineering is highly desirable.
The main product is the result of a technology transfer agreement with the
University of Massachusetts in Worcester (Dr. Fredric Fay and the
Biomedical Imaging Group). The product line is called CELLscan and
includes the Exhaustive Photon Reassignment (TM) (EPR) algorithm developed
and patented by Dr. Fay's group. This algorithm is licensed exclusively
to Scanalytics. The net effect of the EPR process is to re-assign
out-of-focus light back to its proper place of origin. This results in
images of very high resolution where small, dim features are revealed. It
also permits specimens to be imaged very rapidly and with a non-laser
light source.
Anyone interested in exploring this opportunity should send a C.V. and
any other relevant information in confidence to:
