[vslist] University of Rochester, Optical Engineer

[Michele Schultz]

Optical Engineering Position, Advanced Technologies for Eye Research. 
A position is available to work with a team of vision scientists, 
engineers, and clinical researchers to optimize the performance of a 
camera, equipped with adaptive optics, for imaging the retina at high 
resolution. The successful candidate with also lead a team to develop 
a new kind of confocal ophthalmoscope with very high axial as well as 
transverse resolution. Experience in design and fabrication of 
optical instrumentation is desirable especially in the area of 
optical coherence tomography. Rochester is an exciting place to 
pursue a career in optics, with the Institute of Optics and the 
Laboratory for Laser Energetics here at the University, not to 
mention a myriad of local companies with expertise in optics and 
imaging. In addition, my laboratory participates in an NSF Science 
and Technology Center for Adaptive Optics and NEI Bioengineering 
Research Partnership that brings together astronomers, vision 
scientists, optical engineers and ophthalmologists to improve retinal 
imaging. For additional information see
