POSTDOCTORAL FELLOW POSITION Applications are invited for a joint postdoctoral research associate appointment in the Institute for Neural Computation and the Department of Ophthalmology, both at the University of California, San Diego. This research project involves the development and application of machine learning algorithms and statistical analysis to biomedical data. In particular, we are interested in developing novel machine learning algorithms for the diagnosis and prediction of Glaucoma based on visual fields and retinal imaging as well as structural analysis of the retina. Specific information about the project can be found in publications available from the web link below.
This research is in close collaboration with Te-Won Lee INC, UCSD (Principal Investigator) and co-PI: Michael Goldbaum, Pamela Sample, Linda Zangwill, Robert Weinreb (UCSD Medical School), Adam Hoover (CES, Clemson) and Terry Sejnowski (INC, UCSD & Salk Institute). Prospective candidates should hold a Ph.D. in computer science or electrical engineering or related fields with expertise in machine learning algorithms, Bayesian networks and statistical analysis. Experience with biomedical data is ideal but not required. Skills in matlab and C++ are required.
