Contexte

The mission of the AI / ML for Biomedicine group is to develop new AI / ML approaches to elucidate cancer mechanisms across scales using multimodal single-cell data with spatial resolution. Topics of special interest include modeling cellular interactions within the tumor microenvironment, and effects of drug perturbations at a patient level.

We are part of the Biomedical Data Science Center (BDSC), a service, education and translational research platform joint between the Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV) and the Faculty of Biology and Medicine of the University of Lausanne (UNIL). Through its collaboration with the Faculty of Biology and Medicine of the UNIL and the EPFL, CHUV plays a leading role in the areas of medical care, medical research and training.

Mission

• You will devise new AI / ML and computer vision methodologies based on foundation models, graph representation learning, multimodal AI, and / or generative modeling
• You will tailor these methodologies to investigate biologically relevant problems, such as biomarker discovery, disease subtyping, or perturbation modeling
• You will collaborate with basic scientists and clinicians to take advantage of large datasets generated by novel experimental technologies to accelerate translational discoveries across the CHUV community and partner institutions
• You will apply these methodologies on a variety of experimental datasets (e.g., single‑cell omics, spatial omics) available to the group through established collaborations
• You will work collaboratively in a young and dynamic team of computational biologists and AI / ML researchers
• You will have the opportunity to gain leadership experience by playing an active role in supervising junior scientists, including data scientists, Master students, PhDs and Postdocs
• You will disseminate scientific findings through publications and conference presentations
• You will actively participate in the CHUV's digital transformation and help building an infrastructure that will facilitate access to CHUV data and that will allow for data-driven research projects.

Profil

According to the profile, the salary class will be between levels 11 and 12.
