PhD in Other Re-Lated Fields

Position as PhD Research Fellow in Deep Learning available at the Department of Informatics./nThe fellowship period is three years. Depending on the candidate and the teaching needs of the department, the fellowship period can be extended either for compulsory work consisting of e.g., teaching and supervision duties and research assistance up top four years./nStarting date no later than October 1, 2026./nPlace of work is the Department of Informatics at Gaustad, Oslo./nThe successful candidate will work in the established collaboration between DSB and ICGI to develop multimodal deep learning models for predicting prostate cancer aggressiveness, integrating digital pathology images and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with clinical data to predict recurrence following surgical removal of prostate cancer. The project will explore the use of foundation models and self-supervised learning and will investigate different techniques for multi-modal integration. The work may also be extended to predicting disease aggressive-ness prior to surgery and to incorporating genetic data into the multimodal prediction models.
