Junior Postdoctoral researcher for O-Health ERC-2021-COG-101044828 - Scalable systems modelling to simulate body-level interplays among non-communicable diseases

 

A postdoctoral research position with an indefinite contract is announced for the realization of scientific and technical activities, for the execution of the project Scalable systems modelling to simulate body-level interplays among non-communicable diseases.

The selected candidate will be a junior postdoctoral researcher, with proven experience in developing computational systems biology models and in clinical and/or biomedical data. In charge of including the vertical models of MNT of the O-Health project the components related to systemic regulation (hormones, low-intensity inflammation factors, ...). It will combine tissue regulatory system biology models and cellular senescence with real clinical data and analysis of biological fluids, to stratify individuals according to the risk of developing long-term NCDs.

Posició post doctoral en Aprenentatge de Reforç

Càrrec postdoctoral en l'àmbit de l'aprenentatge per reforç, treballant principalment en l'aprenentatge de la representació. La durada del càrrec és d'aproximadament 6 mesos.
L'investigador postdoctoral realitzarà les següents tasques en l'àmbit de l'aprenentatge per reforç:
- Desenvolupar nous algorismes per a l'aprenentatge de la representació en l'àmbit de l'aprenentatge per reforç.

- Demostrar les propietats teòriques dels algorismes desenvolupats mitjançant eines matemàtiques (àlgebra lineal, càlcul, estadística).

- Implementar aquests algorismes en un llenguatge de programació adequat (probablement Python).

- Realitzar experiments i simulacions amb els algorismes donats en dominis estàndard per comparar-los amb l'estat de la tècnica.

- Escriure informes i presentar potencialment el treball en conferències i tallers internacionals.

Postdoctoral Researcher for the project Bone strength analysis for osteoporosis management and fracture prevention (BONE STRENGTH - CPP2021-008574)

BONE STRENGTH is a public-private collaboration project funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (MICINN) and Agency of Research (AEI) that focuses on the prediction of fragile bone fractures in osteoporosis, out of routine clinical explorations. The collaboration will take place between the technology-based company 3D Shaper Medical SL, and the Barcelona Centre for New Medical Technologies (BCN MedTech) of the Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF). Both 3D Shaper Medical SL and UPF are in Barcelona, Spain.

The successful Candidate will be a postdoctoral researcher, with proven experience in the development of open-source finite element codes in computational mechanics. He/She will be based at DTIC, UPF and will be responsible for the proper development, assessment, and integration of the 3D Shaper® FEA module under BSD or GNU LGP licenses, in collaboration with 3D Shaper Medical SL. Scientific and technical competencies are necessary in the development and implementation of finite element source codes, software development, continuum mechanics and constitutive material modelling. Previous experience in computer model verification, validation and uncertainty quantification will be largely welcome. The Researcher will collaborate with a small team of researchers dedicated to the same project and will report periodically to the respective PI of UPF and 3D Shaper Medical SL, to ensure (i) that the timelines of the project and deliverables are met, and (ii) that the project results can be properly disseminated through scientific and medical congresses and journals. Hence, communication, teamwork and leadership skills will be chiefly important.

Postdoctoral researcher position on algorithmic fairness funded by Horizon Europe through project FINDHR

As part of the Horizon Europe project FINDHR (Fairness and Intersectional Non-Discrimination in Human Recommendation), we offer a postdoctoral research position at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona. FINDHR is an interdisciplinary project to fight discrimination in Artificial Intelligence (AI).

The project addresses primarily discrimination risks in algorithmic hiring: the usage of AI tools for sourcing and assessment of job candidates. Most of the tasks of the researcher will involve the development of algorithms, benchmarking datasets, and demonstrators, as well as contributions to research led by social scientists, legal scholars, and advocacy organization representatives.
