Description:

The Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) is a cutting-edge institute addressing global public health challenges through research, translation to policy and education. ISGlobal has a broad portfolio in communicable and non-communicable diseases including environmental and climate determinants, and applies a multidisciplinary scientific approach ranging from the molecular to the population level. Research is organized in three main areas, Malaria and other Infectious Diseases, Child and Maternal Health, and Urban Health, Climate & Non-Communicable Diseases. ISGlobal is the first global public health centre to have received the Severo Ochoa distinction, a seal of excellence of the Spanish Science Ministry.

What we are looking for:

We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join the new Biomedical Data Science Research Group of Dr. Paula Petrone at ISGlobal, created in the framework of the Severo Ochoa Program, with the vision of leveraging data analytics and artificial intelligence to improve health care outcomes. This is a unique opportunity for a motivated data scientist to contribute to the digital transformation of biomedicine and carry out research that has social impact and responds to unmet medical needs.

The postdoctoral researcher will develop novel research that applies advanced analytics and machine learning approaches to biomedical data and real-world evidence, IoT and digital therapeutics, bioinformatics and health informatics. An ambition of this team is to implement predictive modelling as well as explainable AI methods to understand disease drivers leading to early disease diagnosis.

Previous experience in the biomedical field is not a requirement but highly desirable. Interest is additionally expressed for candidates with demonstrated experience in at least one of the following topics: bioinformatics, health informatics, medical imaging, computer vision, machine learning, natural language processing, deep learning and explainable artificial intelligence.

Main duties:Development of data science models to predict and to understand human health and disease, to augment clinical decision-making and guide the development of new therapies and diagnosticsCarry out high-quality research independentlyHelp develop robust model training and data infrastructure to support collaborative data science projects at ISGlobalPublish research results in scientific journals and in national and international conferences.
