To support our advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and data science at the University of Southern Denmark, the Maersk Mc-Kinney Møller Institute invites candidates to apply for an Assistant Professorship position to help us bring AI and machine learning into more diverse specialities with a focus on data driven solutions within medical applications and renewable energy.

The application deadline is December 31, 2024, at 11.59 PM/23.59 (CET/CEST) 

Research and organizational environment

At the University of Southern Denmark (SDU), the candidates will join the research group of Applied AI & Data Science (AID) at the Maersk Mc-Kinney Møller Institute. In collaboration with several University Hospitals and industrial partners across Denmark and Europe, these research environments provide the foundation for accelerating AI in the energy and health care sector as well as representing expertise in artificial intelligence, statistical machine learning, and data science by developing methods for data-driven solutions spanning across diverse specialities.

Qualifications

We would like to appoint a talented and committed colleague, holding a Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, or related areas, who will contribute actively to the research environment in our group. We are seeking a candidate with a strong background in AI, machine learning and in general data science with interests and background in at least one of the two broad research directions (healthcare/renewable energy). 

To participate in our healthcare related research, we seek a strong background and interest in the analysis of heterogeneous unstructured patient data, including biological signals, as well as images and text. Extensive knowledge in large language models (LLMs) and the link to protein language models (PLMs) to target precision medicine is highly advantageous. 

To participate in our energy related research, we seek candidates with strong background in scientific computing and physics-infused AI to tackle some of the challenges within fusion energy and optics. 

We invite motivated candidates with a background in any one of these research directions to apply, while a background in both directions would be preferred. The successful candidate will be able to contribute to the development of a strong AI research environment at SDU. We believe in fostering a stimulating and inspiring environment, so the candidate qualified for the position will have the possibility of collaborating with researchers working with bio and soft robotics, drones and autonomous systems, among others.

The successful applicant will join a dynamic research team and will be introduced to and included in teaching activities, research projects, fundraising activities, and collaborations to explore the synergy between clinical and technical researchers, healthcare professionals and industrial partners.

Responsibilities 
Your primary responsibility is to utilize and leverage the broad technical and clinical research and to support the long-term vision of AID being a world-class centre in the field of applied artificial intelligence and machine learning. This follows the research strategy, which functions as the backbone in one of the first centres of its kind dedicated to working with AI across a large variety of clinical and technical areas.

Your responsibilities will be to:

  • Develop, implement, and execute industrial AI-focused projects in close collaborations with our partners.
  • Develop, implement and execute clinical AI-focused projects in close collaborations with clinicians at the hospital by bridging interests between the clinical practice and the technical research.
