Click here Dear Arne, We are excited to announce that *VIB.AI * is currently recruiting *four Group Leaders*, junior to senior levels, who use and develop AI methods and mechanistic mathematical models in the field of life sciences. We kindly ask for your assistance in sharing these opportunities within your group, department, or faculty. *Research focus* We are seeking candidates with a background in machine learning or a related quantitative field who apply AI and mathematical modeling to address fundamental questions in biology. Examples of research topics include: - development of new AI architectures for biology and hybrid models that combine deep learning with mechanistic models - foundation models of genome regulation using single-cell and spatial multi-omics data - AI-based modeling of protein structure and protein interaction networks - AI-based modelling of cell morphology and tissue function using imaging and computer vision *Stimulating environment* We offer substantial core research funding and state-of-the-art facilities within a collaborative and dynamic academic environment. The positions are based in either Leuven or Ghent (Belgium). For further details on the different vacancies, please scroll down or visit vib.ai . The *application deadline is November 1st*, so we would greatly appreciate your help in distributing this announcement and forwarding it to any suitable candidates within your network. Thank you in advance for your support! Kind regards, Stein _ *Stein Aerts* Scientific Director VIB.AI Professor KU Leuven We are recruiting a Group Leader in plant *biotechnology*, *biodiversity*, and *ecosystems* to tackle biological questions with cutting-edge AI. Areas of interest may include, but are not limited to: - AI-driven modeling across scales (from genotype to phenotype) - AI-powered biodiversity studies at the molecular level - AI modeling in molecular ecology and evolution We also welcome applied research projects, such as developing AI tools for precision agriculture or biodiversity conservation. *This position will be based in Ghent and affiliated to the University of Ghent.* More info & how to apply We are recruiting another Group Leader who uses and develops AI methods and mechanistic mathematical models to advance research in *biomedical sciences* and *human disease*. Areas of focus could include, but are not limited to: - AI-driven modeling of disease processes - multi-scale models across genome, transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome - modeling cell and tissue morphology through imaging and computer vision We also welcome applicants with applied projects in areas like: - drug discovery (protein modeling & design) - synthetic biology & bio-engineering - AI-driven experiments (experiment-in-the-loop) - AI-based modeling on clinical data, diagnostics, medical imaging and digital twin *This position will be based in Ghent and affiliated to the University of Ghent.* More info & how to apply We are recruiting *two* group leaders who apply AI methods and mechanistic mathematical models to tackle *fundamental questions in biology*. Some examples of research areas fitting our center include, but are not limited to: - development of novel AI architectures for biology - hybrid models combining deep learning with mechanistic models - foundation models of genome regulation using single-cell and spatial multi-omics data - AI-based modeling of protein structure & protein interaction networks - AI models of cell morphology, tissue function (imaging/computer vision), and disease - applications across microorganisms, neuroscience, cancer, and immunology We also encourage applicants working on applied projects such as synthetic biology, AI-driven experiments (experiment-in-the-loop), and bio-engineering. *These two positions will be based in Leuven and affiliated to KU Leuven.* More info & how to apply *VIB.AI * VIB vzw Suzanne Tassierstraat 1 9052 Ghent *vib.ai* Preferences | Unsubscribe -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
