About the Role

Advance cutting-edge multiple sclerosis research by applying your neuroimaging expertise within a collaborative and globally recognised research environment at the Save Sight Institute.

Responsibilities

• Generation and refinement of high-precision lesion masks from longitudinal MRI datasets, rigorous quality control, and independent handling of complex lesion analysis workflows used in clinical research studies.
• Perform manual and semi-automated lesion segmentation and masking of MRI brain scans, including T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and FLAIR sequences, to support high-quality neuroimaging research outcomes.
• Assess MRI datasets for image quality, protocol adherence, and suitability for analysis, ensuring accurate and reproducible imaging-derived data.
• Conduct longitudinal review of serial MRI studies to identify lesion progression and radiological change over time within the MAD-MS study.
• Organise, maintain, and archive imaging datasets, lesion masks, and associated documentation in accordance with study protocols and research governance requirements.
• Apply quality assurance processes and standard operating procedures to maintain consistency, integrity, and reproducibility across imaging analysis workflows.
• Collaborate with investigators, clinicians, and research staff to provide technical imaging expertise and contribute to publications, presentations, and grant submissions.

Requirements

• Relevant tertiary qualifications in medical imaging, neuroscience, biomedical science, or a related discipline, with demonstrated experience in MRI image analysis and lesion segmentation.
• Strong knowledge of neuroanatomy and the radiological manifestations of neurological disease, with the ability to apply specialised technical expertise within established research protocols.
• Exceptional attention to detail and analytical capability, with experience performing accurate and reproducible technical image analysis and quality assurance activities.
• Well-developed organisational skills with the ability to manage imaging datasets, documentation, and competing priorities in a research environment.
• Experience working within neuroimaging research environments, ideally involving multiple sclerosis or neurological disease research, with exposure to specialised neuroimaging software platforms for image segmentation and analysis.
• Must have unrestricted work rights in Australia for the duration of this employment.
• Successful completion of all pre-employment or background checks required for the role.
• Declaration regarding investigation for, or finding of, sexual harm or gender-based violence in the course of previous employment or in a legal process.
