LABS recruitment

Lab introduction:

Laboratory of AI and Biomedical Science (LABS) is recruiting now! LABS focuses on developing and applying AI to various biomedical data in human aging and disease. Dr. Junhao Wen is an Assistant Professor at USC and looks forward to working with the next generation of brilliant scientists.

Research directions:

The interests of LABS are to develop and apply statistical, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (ML/AI) methodologies to “big data” in multiomics and medical data for aging and diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease. In particular, we emphasize utilizing advanced ML/AI techniques and multi-omics data, including MRI, genetics, transcriptomics, and proteomics, to solve clinically relevant problems for precision medicine. All relevant directions can be pursued based on discussions, interests, and expertise.

Candidate skill set:

  • Ph.D. degree in any quantitative science, preferably in Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Neuroscience, or Statistics;
  • Candidate should have a working knowledge of programming, including Linux, Python, and R;
  • Candidate having background knowledge in neuroimaging, machine learning, and genetics is encouraged;
  • Skills in communications, collaboration, and outreach are required.
