Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Lead Scientist; Temporary

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Lead Scientist (Temporary)

The Digital Twin Innovation Hub is developing infrastructure for the construction, simulation, analysis, and visualization of a human immune system model. The multi-scale computational model integrates mechanistic molecular and cellular-level models with population whole-body models, utilizing machine learning and distributed computing solutions to solve inter- and cross-scale simulations of communication flow.

As the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Lead Scientist, you will:

• Lead the development and execution of multiple AI/ML projects related to multi-scale, multi-cellular immune system modeling.
• Develop, execute, and implement AI/ML infrastructure to simulate the human immune system, diseases, and drug interactions.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to enhance the understanding of the human immune system and underlying immune-related conditions and treatments.
• Be responsible for project management of a team of contractors and staff working on the project.

Benefits for eligible temporary employees include health, dental, vision, and life insurance.
