Nataša Pržulj is looking for several PhD students to work in
machine learning and network science. They will be developing new
algorithms for computationally hard problems and applying them to
analyzing large-scale molecular and patient data to aid drug
discovery and personalizing treatment. The successful candidates
will work on the prestigious ERC Consolidator grant of Prof.
Pržulj.<span> </span><br style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">
The successful candidates will complete a PhD in Computer Science,
which will address developing and applying sophisticated machine
learning and network science models and algorithms. The algorithms
will be carefully tuned to extract relevant biological and medical
knowledge from systems-level real-world molecular and medical
data. The aim is to utilize them to understand the structure of
the data that would enable mining the data for new biological and
medical insight that would further lead to improving diagnostics,
discovering new biomarkers, improving patient stratification and
treatment, personalizing treatment and facilitate rational drug
development. The successful candidates will join a dynamic
research group of Prof. Przulj within BSC. The students will work
in a highly sophisticated HPC environment, will have access to
systems and computational infrastructures, and will establish
collaborations with experts in different areas.</div>
