Open Position: Research Fellow or PostDoc in Computer Science

Three-Dimensional Modelling of Growing Plant Seeds

We are looking for a research fellow or postdoc to join the Pattern 
Recognition Group at the Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant 
Research, Gatersleben, Germany.

Two-dimensional high-resolution images containing for example in situ 
hybridisations are to be integrated into three-dimensional models of 
growing plant seeds, which have been created from NMR data. Since this 
three-dimensional model and the two-dimensional images are not derived 
from identical objects (individual seeds), sophisticated algorithms have 
to be developed and applied. Complex developmental patterns can be 
visualized at different levels by integrating these high-resolution 
images into existing spatiotemporal models.

Profound knowledge of image processing/three-dimensional modelling and 
programming skills in C/C++ are essential. Knowledge of AMIRA and/or 
MATLAB software packages is an advantage as well as some knowledge in 
parallel programming. Further information can be found at:

Please direct informal inquiries as well as your complete application, 
including CV, project list, research interests and names/addresses of at 
least three referees by e-mail to:

Dr. Udo Seiffert
Head of the Pattern Recognition Group
