Explore FLASH radiotherapy research using OCT and MRI at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre in downtown Toronto, with in-person laboratory work. Analyze multimodal imaging data within a multidisciplinary team.

This temporary full time Co-op placement supports the Vitkin Lab, Department of Medical Biophysics, and University Health Network. You will contribute to in vivo studies using preclinical mouse models, investigating tumour and normal tissue microvasculature. The work includes imaging, scientific analysis, experimental planning, and research communication.

Key Responsibilities:

- Assist with in vivo FLASH irradiation experiment design and execution
- Prepare, handle, and monitor animals under approved protocols
- Acquire tumour and vascular images using OCT and MRI




- Process and quantify imaging data with MATLAB or Python
- Document experiments and present progress during group meetings

Requirements:

- University studies in biomedical engineering, physics, or related programs
- Research laboratory experience preferred
- Strong written, oral, and scientific communication skills
- Detail-oriented, organized, self-motivated, and critical-thinking approach
- Imaging, MRI, animal-handling, or in vivo experience is an asset

Apply biomedical physics training to FLASH radiotherapy studies through OCT, MRI, MATLAB, Python, and careful experimental documentation.
