STEM Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
Join Our Dynamic Research Team!
The Laboratory of Artificial Intelligence in Medicine at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University invites applications for postdoctoral scholars. We are dedicated to pioneering research at the forefront of brain imaging and genetics, leveraging AI technology to analyse large datasets and uncover insights into brain development in early life.
Over the years, our lab has spearheaded numerous human studies focused on brain health and cognition in children. With a repository of brain scans, cognitive assessments, genetic profiles, and environmental data from over 60,000 subjects across multiple time points, we are committed to unravelling the complexities of developmental conditions.
Why Join Us?
· Cutting-Edge Facilities: Benefit from our state-of-the-art research centre equipped with high-performance computing resources, including multiple H100 and A100 GPU systems for deep learning, and computing clusters tailored for large-scale data analysis. With access to over 5000T of medical data, spanning medical records, images, and pathology data, you'll have the tools needed to drive impactful research forward.
· Publication Excellence: Join a team that prides itself on academic excellence. Our laboratory has contributed over 180 papers to esteemed journals such as Nature, Nature Neuroscience, Nature Mental Health, PNAS, Medical Image Analysis, IEEE TMI, and more, showcasing our commitment to advancing knowledge in the field.
· International Collaboration: Engage with our global network of researchers through our participation in an international consortium on brain development from infancy onwards. By collaborating with multiple cohorts worldwide, we aim to generate insights that will inform strategies for optimizing brain health across diverse populations.
