Postdoctoral Analysis Fellow place

On the College of Drugs, Division of Scientific Science, a full-time (100 %) place as postdoctoral analysis fellow is offered for a interval of three (3) years.

In regards to the undertaking/work duties:

• Diabetes is a considerable well being burden. The illness can develop and progress in several methods in several sufferers, difficult each our understanding of a person underlying pathophysiology and our scientific planning of therapies.
• Current developments in computational biology, machine studying, and synthetic intelligence make it doable to study these various pathways of illness development from multi-omics information. This purpose will assist us perceive, and probably deal with, diabetes development accounting for particular person variability: aligning with the philosophy of data-driven precision medication. Nonetheless, for accountable and strong purposes, the method of studying and classifying diabetes development behaviour should be clear: an AI “black field” which suggests choices with out clear reasoning just isn’t adequate.
