Applicants experienced in solving critical challenges in medical data validation methods, training AI models for enabling diagnostic tests, their replicability, and proof of their clinical utility will be given preference.
The scholar will be trained to develop and interpret generative deep neural networks (DNNs) for automating tissue-based analyses, interrogating basic biological features and proximity relationships between tissue constituents for digital biopsies.
Responsibilities include managing, processing and visualizing high-parameter medical images (e.g., pathology, MRI, CT, RGB etc.
associated clinical labels, and molecular profiles for training, validation, and interpretations of interpretable DNNs.
Opportunities to publish in leading biomedical journals and machine learning conferences, networking with government funding agencies, industry partners, foundations, and academic experts.
Training in fellowship writing, teaching / mentoring, oral presentations and review of manuscripts will be provided.
Substantive inquiries about the position should be directed to :
