Ph.D. opening in computational imaging and machine learning at UT-Austin

The Computational Imaging and Inverse Problems Group directed by Prof. Bo Zhao at the University of Texas at Austin (UT-Austin) is looking for a highly-motivated Ph.D. student who is interested in computational imaging, signal processing, machine learning, and high-performance computing, as well as applications in biomedical imaging.

Prospective Ph.D. students should have a B.S. and/or M.S. degree in electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, computer science, applied mathematics, or a related area, and should be very passionate about exploring unknowns in scientific research. Prospective Ph.D. students are expected to have:

• Great research interests in the intersection of data science and imaging science
• Solid mathematical foundations (e.g., linear algebra, probability, statistics, optimization) and engineering backgrounds (e.g., signal processing, linear systems, machine learning)
• Strong coding skills in one of the computing languages, such as MATLAB, Python, C++, or Julia
• Excellent English communication and writing skills
  

The Ph.D. student will be fully supported as a graduate research assistant (GRA) in the Prof. Zhao’s group at the Department of Biomedical Engineering and the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering & Sciences. The student will have access to the extraordinary computing resources at the Texas Advanced Computing Center, which hosts Frontera, one of the top 10 supercomputers in the world. The student will also have access to the outstanding imaging facilities and will have chance to collaborate with clinicians to impact the field of healthcare with the cutting-edge graduate research in machine learning and artificial intelligence.

UT-Austin is a world-renown university, and its Cockrell School of Engineering is among the top 10 and its Department of Biomedical Engineering is among the top 20 in the United States. The university is located at the city of Austin, which is the capital of Texas. Austin has been consistently ranked as the best place to live in the United States, and is well known for Silicon Hills, which has embraced a cluster of top high-tech companies, including Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, IBM, Intel, and Cisco.

For those who are interested in this position, please apply to the PhD. program at the department website: https://www.bme.utexas.edu/academics/graduate-program/admissions. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Prof. Zhao (bozhao AT utexas.edu).

An introduction to Prof. Zhao:
Prof. Bo Zhao joined the University of Texas at Austin as an Assistant Professor in the 2020 fall, affiliated with the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering & Sciences and Department of Biomedical Engineering. Prior to that, he received his Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He was a postdoctoral researcher and then junior faculty at Harvard.
