We are Helmholtz Munich. In a rapidly changing world, we discover breakthrough solutions for better health.

Our research is focused within the areas of metabolic health/diabetes, environmental health, molecular targets and therapies, cell programming and repair, bioengineering, and computational health. We particularly excel in the fields of basic research, bioengineering, artificial intelligence, and technological development.

Through this research, we build the foundations for medical innovation. Together with our partners, we seek to accelerate the transfer of our research, so that laboratory ideas can reach society and improve people’s quality of life at the fastest rate possible.

This is what drives us. Why not join us and make a difference?

The Institute of AI for Health develops solutions for digital health challenges. As an emerging European hub for applied artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), we aim at modeling large-scale, high throughput biomedical data, developing new drugs and treatments, and integrating multi-omics data for precision medicine.

Prof. Matthias Tschöp (Dr. Med., Dr. hc.), CEO of Helmholtz Munich: "We believe that excellent research requires a range of different perspectives. Diverse teams reach better solutions and are more innovative in their research topics.

Establishing our Diversity Management Strategy demonstrates our commitment to ensuring an appreciative company culture based on mutual respect. We are also implementing diversity-sensitive processes throughout our whole organization."

Your tasks

A particular focus of the offered PhD positions will be on novel artificial intelligence methods for antimicrobial peptide design. The projects involve strong collaborations with international experimental partners. The PhD students will receive supervision in both AI and peptide design expertise and will be embedded in a highly supportive, communicative team. Both positions are funded by the prestigious ERC Consolidator grant.

**Profile**:

- Masters in computer science, AI, bioinformatics, biostatistics, or a related field.
