Postdoc/PhD in Computer Science – AI-Powered Digital Twins
Veröffentlicht: 27.05.2025

Full- or Part-Time | Limited Contract (24 Months) | Starting June 1, 2025

 

Are you driven to leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) and multimodal data analysis, to create personalized medicine solutions? Join our ambitious GO-TWIN project to develop an innovative AI-powered Digital Twin model for women with ovarian cancer. You will play a crucial role in integrating diverse hospital data to provide personalized treatment strategies and improve patient outcomes.

 

Your tasks:

  • Design and build robust, HL7 FHIR-compatible pipelines for the automated extraction, integration, and harmonization of multimodal data from various hospital sources (clinical records, DICOM images, genomic data, pathology reports).
  • Implement privacy-preserving LLMs (e.g., Llama-3-based models) for sophisticated information extraction from unstructured clinical texts and scientific literature to enrich the digital twin. This includes prompt engineering and potentially guided generation techniques.
  • Contribute to the architecture and development of the "digital twin" platform, enabling the dynamic representation and analysis of individual patient trajectories.
  • Explore and implement XAI methods to ensure transparency and interpretability of AI-driven recommendations for clinical decision support.
  • Work closely with clinicians and data scientists to ensure the developed tools meet clinical needs and are validated in real-world settings. Publish your findings in leading journals and conferences.

 

Your profile:

  • An excellent Master's degree (for PhD position) or PhD (for Postdoc position) in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, or a related field.
  • Proven, advanced programming skills, particularly in Python, and experience with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch highly preferred).
  • Demonstrable experience in developing and training deep learning models, ideally with a focus on large language models. 
  • A passion for tackling complex scientific challenges, a creative mindset for developing novel solutions, and a meticulous approach to research and validation.
  • A strong analytical and problem-solving mindset, with a keen interest in applying AI to solve complex challenges in personalized medicine.
  • You are passionate about open science and open source. 

 

What we offer:

  • The opportunity to work on cutting-edge research projects with high societal impact.
  • Access to unique, large-scale medical datasets and high-performance computing infrastructure (including NVIDIA A100/H100 GPUs).
  • An interdisciplinary and international working environment with close collaboration between AI experts and leading clinicians.
  • Funding for conference travel and publications.
  • EGYM well pass, corporate benefits and discounts (e.g. Käfer), cafeteria, sports and cultural offers, company bike 
  • Free use of the library through a branch of the Munich City Library located in the building 
  • Working in the heart of Munich at Max-Weber-Platz with very good accessibility by public transport such as the subway, S-Bahn or tram
  • Company pension plan through the Federal and State Pension Institute (VBL)
  • Personal fulfillment through a varied and professionally demanding role with interdisciplinary collaboration.

 

We look forward to your application!
