PhD and Postdoc Positions in Machine Learning and Image Analysis at OHSU Two PhD trainee and two postdoc positions are available at Oregon Health and Science University, opening immediately till filled. We develop innovative machine learning and computer vision algorithms and apply them to biomedicine so that they are used by biomedical researchers and physicians in the clinic. First and foremost, you will be trained to become a machine learning scientist (most of our graduates work in high-tech companies such as Microsoft, Nvidia, Intel, Apple, and Amazon). Furthermore, you will work in an exciting interdisciplinary environment with the potential to directly impact medical research, cancer care and patients’ lives. You will:
* Work and collaborate with a diverse team of machine learning experts, imaging scientists, cancer biologists, radiologists and medical doctors to build a new generation of artificial intelligence in cancer research, detection and treatment. * Create algorithms and software in machine learning and deep learning for quantitative image analysis that enable discoveries in biomedicine and the evaluation of biological variation in diseases such as cancer. The tasks may include image registration, segmentation, characterization, quantification, and analysis. The imaging modalities may include electron microscopy, cyclic immunofluorescence, MRI and CT. * Leverage the unique opportunity within the field of computer vision and cancer research provided by the massive amount of image data at OHSU for conventional and unconventional modeling with clinical and biomedical relevance, such as (semi-)supervised, weakly supervised and unsupervised machine learning methods. * Have the opportunity to leverage modern computing clusters with hundreds of GPU’s and large cluster of DGX nodes. Required Skills for PhD Trainees: * Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Math, Physics, Statistics or other engineering and science field. * Strong analytical and computing skills. * Proficiency in advanced programming languages such as Python, Matlab, C/C++ or Java. * Interest in machine learning & deep learning and their application in medicine. * Knowledge about cancer biology and microscopic imaging is a plus but not required. Required Skills for Postdocs: * PhD Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Math, Physics, Statistics or other engineering and science field, with extensive experience in machine learning, computer vision, image process and analysis, or statistical analysis. * Track record of scholarship as reflected in solid publications in leading journals or conference proceedings. * Excellent communication skills in both spoken and written English. * Excellent coding skills in Python, Matlab, C/C++ or Java. * Knowledge about cancer biology and microscopic imaging is a plus but not required. OSHU is located in Portland, Oregon, in the Pacific Northwest. It is in close proximity of the “Silicon Forest” that consists of many high-tech companies. Portland boasts a thriving biotech scene with many biomedical companies, and is known for its mild climate, natural beauty, access to outdoors, and quality of living.
