[DMANET] Join Us at the New Institute for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (IKIM) at the University Hospital Essen

The research group Translation Image-guided Oncology is part of the newly founded Institute for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (IKIM) at the University Hospital Essen. The institute is located at the heart of Essen-Rüttenscheid, a vibrant neighborhood of Essen, with a broad range of cultural and culinary activities to explore.

We work on developing and deploying cutting-edge machine learning methods with the goal of making a meaningful difference for patients, doctors, and hospital staff. To this end, and in collaboration with a digital-forward clinic administration, we continue to build on a SMART hospital information structure that provides access to real-world medical data. Strong funding and state-of-the-art equipment support this effort. One focus of our group lies in the exploration of unsupervised learning paradigms for recognition of oncologically relevant patterns in large and complex data.

We currently offer several open research positions at various levels, including PhD positions, postdoc and junior group leader positions. We are also constantly on the look-out for interested and motivated bachelor and master students.

We are seeking enthusiastic, self-motivated, and curious personalities, who strive to create meaningful impact with their work and enjoy working in a team of like-minded persons. You should have training in computer science, physics or in related fields and a solid foundation in machine learning.
