Job Description

Position Overview

We are seeking highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellows and Research Assistants/Engineers (Bachelor’s/Master’s level) to join an international research initiative focused on Federated Learning (FL) for medical data. This project is a unique collaboration among leading medical and technical teams from the UK, China, and Australia.

The successful candidates will conduct research into Federated Learning methodologies and contribute to their deployment in real-world clinical settings. This role is ideal for researchers who possess a deep mastery of Deep Learning and a passion for high-quality software engineering, offering the opportunity to publish in top-tier venues while seeing their work translated into tangible medical applications.

Key Responsibilities

  • For Postdoctoral Research Fellows
  • Conduct research to develop and optimize novel federated learning algorithms, with emphasis on data heterogeneity, communication efficiency, and privacy preservation.
  • Adapt and implement advanced Federated Learning architectures for large-scale medical datasets and Large Language Models.
  • Facilitate the integration of research models into real-world clinical applications, ensuring seamless interoperability across diverse institutional environments.
  • For Research Engineers
  • Develop robust backend infrastructure for medical federated systems, prioritizing stability, scalability, and security.
  • Create clean, maintainable, and efficient codebases to enable the seamless deployment of federated learning models in diverse institutional settings.
  • Drive system interoperability by designing and managing data pipelines and APIs, ensuring smooth integration into clinical workflows.

Qualifications

Essential Qualifications

  • A Ph.D. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, AI, or a related quantitative discipline for postdoctoral applicants.
  • Robust experience in training and fine-tuning state-of-the-art LLM architectures.
  • Proficient in common deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch).

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior research or implementation experience in Federated Learning frameworks and privacy-preserving protocols.
  • A documented history of successfully migrating theoretical models into practical, deployable systems (e.g., active GitHub profile).
  • Experience handling specialized medical data formats (e.g., DICOM, EHR) and knowledge of clinical data privacy standards.

Benefits Of The Position

  • Direct engagement with a global consortium of world-leading academic institutions.
  • The opportunity to observe the direct clinical application of your research, bridging the gap between theory and patient care.
  • Access to high-performance computing (HPC) resources and a vibrant, interdisciplinary research environment in Coche.
