From 2008 to 2010, he went back to Massachusetts General Hospital as a postdoctoral researcher.[1] During this time, Madisch won the Young Investigator Prize of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) in Chicago for the project "High-resolution volume CT imaging of tissue-engineered bone growth: correlation between imaging, bio-mechanical strength, and protein transcription analysis".[7]
After a telephone request from the German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Ijad Madisch became on 22 August 2018 a member of the 10-member Digital Council of the Cabinet of Germany.[3]
