SMART is a major research enterprise established by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in
partnership with the National Research Foundation of Singapore (NRF). SMART serves as an intellectual hub
for international research collaborations, not only between MIT and Singapore, but also involving researchers
from the region and beyond. At SMART, we identify and carry out research on critical problems of societal
importance. SMART is a magnet attracting and anchoring global research talent, while simultaneously
instilling and promoting a culture of translational research and entrepreneurship in Singapore. Five
interdisciplinary research groups (IRGs) have been established to date: BioSystems and Micromechanics
(BioSyM), Centre for Environmental Sensing and Modeling (CENSAM), Future Urban Mobility (FM),
Infectious Diseases (ID) and Low Energy Electronics Systems (LEES).

The Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) Centre invites applications for postdoctoral
researcher position(s) in the area of Optical imaging. The successful candidate(s) will be expected to
work on environmental and/or biological imaging, with emphasis on problems related to turbid media and
undersampled/noisy images. Fundamental work on imaging theory, experimental demonstrations and prototype
development, and building/deployment of experimental apparatus for applications are all of critical importance
for the ongoing work at SMART.
Requirements:
Candidates with an earned or soon-to-be-earned doctoral degree in Electrical/Mechanical/Computer
Engineering/ Physics will be considered, provided their research track record is in the broad areas of
computational inverse problems, image processing, electromagnetics, physical/ray optics, optical design, optomechanics,
machine vision, and related disciplines. Ideally the successful candidate(s) should be able to be
involved and/or supervise more junior researchers in all aspects of research, i.e. fundamental/ prototype
development/ deployment.
To apply, please visit our open positions website at: http://smart.mit.edu/jobs-at-smart/current-open-positions.html.
html. Applications should consist of: (1) curriculum vitae, (2) personal statement, (3) copies of no
more than three representative publications, (4) names of up to three referees who are familiar with the
candidate’s research and academic track record, submitted via the stated website. We regret that only shortlisted
candidates will be notified.
