Title 42 Staff Scientist / Director Machine Learning Core National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health Department of Health and Human Services, Bethesda, MD
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), a major research component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), is seeking exceptional candidates for the Director position in the Division of Intramural Research Programs (DIRP) of the newly created Machine Learning Core (MLC). The NIMH DIRP represents one of the largest concentrations of neuroimaging researchers in the world with experts in cognitive neuroscience, mental health, neurological disorders, functional MRI methods and technology, DTI, high field imaging, parallel imaging, spectroscopy, and molecular imaging, among others. The NIH also hosts a world class high performance computing cluster with 20,000+ computing nodes and over a petabyte of storage (http://hpc.nih.gov). The new Machine Learning Core will be responsible for developing, facilitating, and supporting machine learning approaches to analyzing human neuroimaging data collected within the NIMH IRP as well as the currently growing number of functional and anatomic imaging databases worldwide. The MLC will also be responsible for assisting investigators in their own research for the search for biomarkers to help diagnose mental health and neurologic disorders in individual subjects. Lastly, MLC will provide extensive education and outreach efforts to help NIMH IRP investigators learn more about machine learning approaches and effectively collaborate with machine learning experts. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in a STEM discipline, post doctoral experience in machine learning approaches, and a passion for applying computational analysis to imaging data towards the goal of deriving biomarkers. Skill and experience in fMRI and MRI acquisition and analysis methods will be considered very favorably. The director’s role will include hiring and supervising junior machine learning specialists, maintain the core’s budget, managing an educational series focused on machine learning for NIMH IRP staff, developing novel and generally useful machine learning approaches, and providing support to investigators in machine learning analyses. Salary will be commensurate with education and experience. Application deadline is March 1, 2016. Applicants should send curriculum vitae and cover letter to: Peter A.
