Data-driven life science (DDLS) uses data, computational methods and
artificial intelligence to study biological systems and processes at all
levels, from molecular structures and cellular processes to human health
and global ecosystems. The SciLifeLab and Wallenberg National Program for
Data-Driven Life Science (DDLS), coordinated by SciLifeLab, aims to recruit
and train the next-generation of data-driven life scientists and to create
globally leading computational and data science capabilities in Sweden. The
program is funded with a total of 3.3 billion SEK (about 350 million USD)
over 12 years from the Knut and Alice Wallenberg (KAW) Foundation.

The DDLS program funds 50 high-profile young group leaders (“Fellows”),
over 210 postdoctoral positions and has established a research school for
260 PhDs, including industry PhDs and postdocs. Fellows are recruited to
the 11 participating host universities/organizations, but brought together
under the DDLS program, which has four strategic areas: cell and molecular
biology, evolution and biodiversity, precision medicine and diagnostics,
epidemiology and biology of infection. For more information, please see
www.scilifelab.se/data-driven.

During 2022-2024, the first and second round of 39 Fellows joined and now
we are looking to recruit an additional group of 11 Fellows. Each DDLS
Fellow will receive a recruitment package of 17 MSEK (about 1.6 million
USD) for a 5-year period, covering their own salary and other resources,
such as salaries for PhD students and postdoc positions. The Fellowships
are tenure-track positions with the host organizations, which assume the
responsibility for the long-term faculty appointments following a tenure
evaluation.

The future of life science is data-driven. Will you be leading the change
with us? Then join us in this unique program!
