奥斯陆大学（挪威文：Universitetet i Oslo）是挪威王国最高学府，位于首都奥斯陆，由丹麦-挪威联盟时期末代国王弗雷德里克六世于1811年下令建立。为了纪念该位国王，大学最初被命名为皇家弗雷德里克大学（挪威文：Det Kongelige Frederiks Universitet），1939年更名为奥斯陆大学。

Researcher position in digital pathology and machine learning

University of Oslo

Job description

A 1-year Researcher position is available in the Computational Oncology Group at the Centre for Molecular Medicine Norway (NCMM), Nordic EMBL Partnership, University of Oslo (see waszaklab.org for further information). The desired starting date is 1 January 2023.

The project aims to derive biomarkers from digital tissue slides based on state-of-the-art deep learning approaches and to develop an automated pipeline for clinical-decision support. The selected candidate will analyse a large set of digital tissue slides from brain tumour patients and extract biological features using computer vision, deep learning, and software programming. The candidate will further develop a containerised digital pathology pipeline for clinical-decision support.

We seek a highly motivated individual with experience in computer vision (ie, image segmentation) and machine learning (eg, convolutional neural networks). The ideal candidate is collaborative, has strong programming skills (Python, C/C++, or Matlab), has experience in statistical modelling of high-dimensional and large datasets, and has a strong publication record. Experience with computer vision and deep learning software libraries is a requirement for this position (eg, fastai, PyTorch, TensorFlow). Experience in digital pathology, neuroscience, or cancer research is highly desirable. The position is open to applicants with a PhD in computer science, physics, statistics, or a related field.
