Our mission as research center: Discover personalized medical solutions for environmentally triggered diseases to promote a healthier society in a rapidly changing world.
In the Systems Genetics and Machine Learning Lab at the Institute of AI for Health (AIH) and the Helmholtz Pioneer Campus, we develop and apply machine learning solutions to analyse large clinical and molecular datasets addressing fundamental biomedical questions such as: Which are the molecular, cellular and organ-level traits associated with disease? Which ones are causative? Do they manifest in specific patient groups? Can we find interventions to revert these processes? We aim to leverage large biomedical cohorts and scalable machine learning approaches to further our understanding of human disease.
Given our strong focus on data integration, scalability and robustness, our research requires computational tools and infrastructure to enable reproducible machine learning experimentation and efficient data handling. As Staff Research Engineer (f/m/x) in the lab, you will be developing these tools, working at the interface of software engineering and data science, enabling researchers to be more productive.
