WFIRM is a multidisciplinary group of physicians and research scientists involved in a myriad of programs focused on bringing curative medicines to the patient. In addition to our world-class regenerative medical programs, WFIRM is recognized as a leader in the organ-on-a-chip platform as well as pushing the boundaries of tissue engineering. Through its relationship with Virginia Tech School of Biomedical Engineering and Sciences, WFIRM is involved in developing solutions over the entire spectrum of regenerative medicine.
Successful candidates will be responsible for some or all of the following :
- Design, develop, and validate new machine learning models that can uncover and describe the relationship between genetic and genomic variation, cellular phenotypes, and clinical conditions and symptoms.
- Design, develop, and validate new methods for characterizing variation in large cellular populations assayed in high-throughput, multi-dimensional assays.
- Design and integrate new computational methods, mathematical models, and bioinformatics approaches with molecular assays at the bench to provide mechanistic understandings of development and regeneration, discover therapies, and streamline the application of systems and synthetic biology.
- Develop computational approaches rooted in machine learning to make precise biological inferences that can not only guide experiments, but also reveal general mechanistic principles underlying cellular organization and molecular networks.
- Work in a highly collaborative and cross-disciplinary team to advance technology platforms aimed at delivering robust, quantitative, mechanistic, and scalable research and clinical benefit.
- Developing methodologies to leverage R&D data and artificial intelligence to connect different components; patients, tissues, in vitro models and in vivo models, in translational research.
- Develop, implement, and validate the application and use of modern machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques – applying robust statistical and quantitative methods for the design of experiments – to allow rigorous model evaluation, uncertainty quantification, prediction, and data generation.
- Integrate advances in diverse fields of machine learning and computer science into modern analytics infrastructure and workflows.
