Associate Image Analyst

IXICO plc (AIM: IXI), is a global leader in neuroscience imaging and biomarker analytics, using its proprietary AI-driven platform to help advance the treatment of neurological disorders and reduce the uncertainties associated with drug discovery, development and monitoring. As a key part of the global neurological disease research community, the Company has built a global reputation and 20-year track record as an end-to-end Imaging Contract Research Organisation (iCRO) working with leading pharma companies, innovative biotech's, disease consortia and non-profit organisations.

IXICO has supported hundreds of neurological clinical trials, analysed hundreds of thousands scans and built an expansive network of expert imaging centres around the world.

The IXICO Platform is tailor-made for neurological disease, reliably processing data from global trials, precisely measuring key imaging biomarkers associated with the identification, progression and treatment of diseases such as Alzheimer's, Huntington's and Parkinson's. Image data is interrogated by the Platform and IXICO's expert scientists translating complex data into clinically meaningful while minimizing data variability and increasing reproducibility.

Our people are empowered to enable us to achieve our company goals and their own personal development through the “4A” values at the heart of our culture:
Aspiration, Ability, Agility and Accountability.

To help us deliver our medical image analysis solutions to large clinical trials we are hiring an Associate Image Analyst on a permanent full-time capacity.

The Associate Image Analyst is an entry-level role, ideally suited to individuals who enjoy structured, detail-focused and repetitive work, with clear daily and weekly targets.

The position offers a consistent and clearly defined scope of responsibilities and is particularly well suited to individuals looking for stability and the opportunity to build expertise and confidence within an established set of tasks.

Bachelor’s degrees are welcomed and appropriate work experience will be considered. Full training is provided by IXICO.

We are open to discussing fully remote working and flexible working hours for this position.

Image analysis involves using different techniques to derive readings from brain scans. The Associate Image Analyst (AIA) position is responsible for image analysis from clinical data received by IXICO in active clinical trials and research studies. Candidates do not need any previous image analysis experience as all new Analysts will be trained by IXICO. A typical day for an AIA will involve working methodically through batches of different brain analysis results, confirming accuracy of the science pipeline/output image.

This job would suit a motivated, methodical worker, with good spatial awareness and attention to detail.

An example of an analysed brain scan and the regions that an AIA will be reviewing for each therapeutic area is shown below:

The duties and responsibilities listed below are representative, but not exhaustive of the role. There may be some variation and/or development of these duties and responsibilities without changing the general nature of the role:

• Performing image analysis, such as whole brain delineation and LEAP endpoint QC, after suitable training has been completed.
• Meeting allocated endpoint QC targets assigned by the Team Leader Image Analysis.
• Performing functions assigned by the Team Leader Image Analysis and Project Managers in accordance with standard operating procedures (SOP) and work instructions (WI).
• Supporting the Image Analysis team in reaching key deliverables.
• Being the go-to analysts for allocated studies.
