- PhD positions: https://werkenbij.amsterdamumc.org/en/vacatures/research/2-phd-positions-in-... - Postdoc researcher position: https://werkenbij.amsterdamumc.org/en/vacatures/research/postdoctoral-resear...
The positions are funded by an NGF AiNed Fellowship Grant for the "CaRe-NLP: Human-Centric and Responsible NLP methods for Dutch healthcare" project. The overall goal of the project is to develop human-centric and responsible NLP and ML methods for healthcare in the Netherlands, Europe, and worldwide. We will design, build, and evaluate state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) for healthcare data that include (combinations of) free-text clinical notes collected in primary/secondary/intensive care settings, medical images, time series measurements, medical knowledge graphs, and multi-modal electronic heath records (EHRs). Our methods' goals are to ensure privacy and fairness, prevent bias, cope with data scarcity, and be interpretable and explainable. We collaborate with a network of clinicians across multiple specialties, and you will tackle relevant clinical problems with real-world impact.
The project team is led by dr. Iacer Calixto and prof. Ameen Abu-Hanna, and we are housed at the Amsterdam UMC location University of Amsterdam in the beautiful city of Amsterdam.

Have a great week, Iacer.
