MR Predevelopment Lead (f/m/d) – Pediatric MR Imaging

Then come and join our global team as MR Predevelopment Lead (f/m/d) –Pediatric MR Imaging to shape and strengthen our portfolio in pediatric MR imaging and liaise with our scientific and clinical partners.

MR imaging plays a key role in imaging children. With its superior contrast and lack of ionizing radiation it is an important imaging modality for the care of our little ones. In the MR Research and Clinical Translation (RCT) team, we develop innovative techniques to improve image quality, speed up scans and compensate for motion during the scan. Another focus is to reduce the need for sedation for children. As an MR examination can be quite intimidating for children, we investigate solutions for radiologists and patients to better cope with the exam.

This is a role well suited to an ambitious professional, looking for the next step in their career with an opportunity to apply their valuable clinical knowledge and leading a cross-functional topic in a corporate setting while being close to clinical decision makers.

This position is full-time or part-time with a minimum of 30h/week.
