[Ivan Viola]

The newly establishing research group led by Prof. Ivan Viola at
KAUST, Saudi Arabia is seeking for candidates excited in performing
research in visualization of the tiny world around us.

We invite applications for researcher positions on all seniority
levels from Master, PhD, Postdoctoral Fellow, and a Research
Scientist. Suitable candidates must have a formal training in Computer
Science or Applied Mathematics, excellent programming skills, and
strong experience in computer graphics and visualization research. Our
primary aim is to develop next-generation technology for 3D
visualization and modeling of microscopic living organisms and
biotechnology. Our research is disseminated through high-impact
publications at the top venues of visualization and visual computing.

Researchers in the Nanovisualization Group will have excellent
opportunities for professional development by obtaining a unique
competence in multiscale 3D visualization for life sciences and in
collaborative research with top-ranked scientific institutions for
biology worldwide. The overall conditions for performing research and
life at the KAUST campus are in every aspect unmatchable with any
