Postdoctoral Researcher Position in AI-Driven Dementia Diagnosis

vor 2 Monaten


Munich, Deutschland LMU Klinikum Vollzeit

Scope of duties

Dementia affects over 55 million people worldwide, with numbers projected to nearly double by 2050. As the prevalence of Alzheimer's and other dementias rises, the need for innovative diagnostic and therapeutic solutions becomes increasingly urgent. Our project, funded by the BMBF (German Federal Ministry of Education and Research), aims to further develop our cutting-edge, cloud-based AI-supported algorithm for diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases, with a particular focus on dementia. Our goal is to translate this advanced technology into the clinical setting, enhancing its practical application and accessibility in healthcare environments. Our goal is to establish a spin-off company providing fully automated diagnostic support within two years.

 Your main tasks will include:

AI Algorithm Development:
Enhance and optimize an existing AI algorithm for dementia prediction using multimodal data (including MRI and PET imaging). Ensure adherence to clinical, regulatory, and ethical standards. Cloud Deployment and Integration: Support cloud deployment of the AI algorithm on AWS. Integrate the algorithm into a prototype clinical platform. Clinical Pilot Study: Support a clinical pilot study to validate the AI algorithm and platform with dementia patients and healthy controls with your technical expertise. Team Coordination and Project Management: Lead and mentor a team of Master’s, PhD, and MD students. Facilitate collaboration among medical professionals, psychologists, and bioinformaticians. Manage project timelines, resources, and communication to ensure successful outcomes. Help transition this academic project into a market-ready product.

Our requirements

PhD in Bioinformatics, Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field Proven experience in AI and machine learning, particularly in imaging and tabular data models 3D-CNNs, Transformer models) Proficiency in Python programming Experience with MRI/PET imaging analysis (preferred) Familiarity with AWS cloud platform (preferred but not required) Strong organizational and communication skills; a collaborative team player

Our offer

Work within a multidisciplinary team with extensive expertise in neurodegenerative diseases, dementia, clinical research, MRI and PET imaging, entrepreneurship, biomarker discovery, and bioinformatics.

Access to high-performance computing resources and a dedicated workstation optimized for model training. Opportunities for national and international collaborations and participation in LMU training programs. Initial employment contract for two years, starting in October 2024. Remuneration is based on the Collective Agreement for the Public Sector of the Länder (TV-L) including all allowances customary in the public sector.
