<p>At the Department of Computer Science of the Vrije Universiteit
Amsterdam we have a tenure track Associate Professor position
available in the area of AI and Health. This is a joint position
with the Amsterdam University Medical Center. The application
deadline is January 15th. Please find a brief description of the
positions below, including a link to a more detailed vacancy
description.</p>
<p><b>Associate Professor in AI and Health</b><br>
</p>
<p>The potential of techniques from Artificial Intelligence for
improved patient care is widely recognized. However, the number of
applications that make it to the patient or clinician remains low.
One of the causes of this gap is that clinicians and AI experts
often speak a different language. To try and bridge the gap
between the two disciplines the Amsterdam UMC (AUMC) and Vrije
Universiteit Amsterdam (VU) are joining forces and are creating a
joint position between the Cancer Center Amsterdam of the
Amsterdam UMC and the Department of Computer Science at the Vrije
Universiteit Amsterdam.<br>
<br>
The position will focus on the use and re-use of structured and
semi-structured clinical data (opposed to medical imaging or
bioinformatics) to deploy and improve machine learning techniques
to develop clinically relevant models, mainly (but not
exclusively) targeting predictive modeling and personalization of
healthcare. Besides purely data-driven approaches, making a
combination with the vast amount of domain knowledge present in
the medical domain is also in scope.<br>
<br>
We are looking for a colleague with a cutting expertise, who is a
leader in the field, and can contribute to our stream of high
quality publications in this area, acquire external research
grants, conduct excellent teaching, and act as a bridge builder
between the two involved institutes.</p>
