OHSU Casey Eye Institute is recruiting for a Post Doctoral Scholar to conduct research in the diagnosis and management of retinal diseases using advanced imaging technologies such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography. This requires maintaining current knowledge of the pertinent literature, and formulation of clinical study design, image processing, and statistical analyses to illuminate specific research questions. A significant percent effort will be placed on developing specific hypotheses, performing image processing and grading, designing statistical analysis plans, calculating statistical power and sample size requirements, and writing and preparing presentations and manuscripts.
