[3dem] 2 positions in Cryo-EM and image analysis at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia

[Georg Ramm]

Dear all,


We have two open positions at the Monash Ramaciotti Centre for Cryo-EM in
Melbourne, Australia. The Ramaciotti Centre for Cryo-Electron Microscopy is
a university research platform and is part of the national grid of
Microscopy Australia facilities. It houses Australia’s first Titan Krios
microscope, a cryo-FIBSEM Helios G4 with Leica VCT500 cryo-stage, a Talos
Arctica, as well as two 120keV TEMs and a FESEM. The Centre is currently
procuring a second 300keV cryo-TEM, which will be dedicated to
cryo-tomography. A suite of advanced sample preparation and other equipment
is available, including a Zeiss LSM900 Airyscan with Linkam cryo-stage, a
Wohlwend high pressure freezer, Leica AFS2 and FC7 cryo-ultramicroscopes.
The Ramaciotti Centre collaborates with and provides complementary
facilities to the adjacent Monash Centre for Electron Microscopy (MCEM),
the Australian Synchrotron and the Melbourne Centre for Nanofabrication
(MCN), which are within walking distance.

The Ramaciotti Centre for Cryo-Electron Microscopy is seeking a Bio-EM
Image Analysis Specialist to provide expertise in image processing of 2D,
3D, and correlative light and electron microscopy data. This position will
see you develop and apply machine-learning approaches to the analysis of
life science EM data with an emphasis on improving quantification methods
and providing feedback for optimal image acquisition.  You will also
collaborate with research groups in the use of image analysis software
including commercial packages.



The successful candidate will demonstrate experience and advanced expertise
in image analysis, scientific programming and in applying machine learning.
Experience with analysis of life science electron microscopy data, research
data management and working with large datasets would be advantageous.
Effective planning and organisational skills with experience establishing
priorities, allocating resources and meeting deadlines are essential.




Applications for *both positions *should include a cover letter, CV and a
document addressing the selection criteria. Please apply via the Monash
careers website link above.
