　　Your duties will include:

　　* Carrying out innovative, impactful research of strategic importance to CSIRO that will, where possible, lead to novel and important scientific outcomes.

　　* Developing innovative concepts, theories, tools and techniques related to the analysis of PET and MRI scans of the brain for the diagnosis of neurodegeneration and ageing, with a focus on PET quantification standardisation.

　　* Harnessing the growing volume of publicly available data sources, as well as work on establishing proprietary datasets in collaboration with our partners.

　　* Undertaking regular reviews of relevant journal and patent literature.

　　* Producing high quality scientific and technical outputs including journal articles, conference papers and presentations, patents and technical reports.
