Training

PhD in Biomedical Imaging and Technology

CBI faculty are responsible for administering a degree-granting graduate program in Biomedical Imaging and Technology as part of the Vilcek Institute of Graduate Biomedical Sciences at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine. The program trains doctoral candidates around in vivo imaging, with an emphasis on MRI. Research opportunities in positron emission tomography (PET) and optical imaging are also available. The program is designed for a select group of students with strong backgrounds in mathematics, physics, and/or engineering, and a desire to apply their skills in the radiological and biomedical sciences. An individually tailored program of study with hands-on courses is designed for each student, specific to their undergraduate background and research interests.

PhD in Biomedical Engineering

CBI faculty associated with the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering can recruit students interested in medical imaging for the PhD program. Students within this graduate program engage in research leading to new engineering approaches and technologies to promote and enhance human health.

PhD in Data Science

Several CBI faculty serve as mentors for the medical school track of the PhD program offered by the NYU Center for Data Science. Students in this track complete the standard curriculum for the PhD in Data Science program and can take elective courses offered at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine. The elective curriculum is customized in consultation with the studentโ€™s mentors to best align with their research interests.

Student Internships

Over the past few years, CBI has organized and managed a paid 10-week summer internship program for NYU students interested in biomedical imaging research. Student internships initiated and supported by individual faculty are also available throughout the year. Students should directly reach out to potential faculty advisors to inquire about opportunities.

Visiting Scholars

We provide remote research collaborators with the opportunity to immerse themselves in the multifaceted translational research at CBI. Applications are initiated by faculty and evaluated by department leadership.

Visiting Students

CBI faculty can host graduate students from foreign institutions for an extended visiting period to work on collaborative research projects. Applications are initiated by faculty and evaluated by the department leadership.
