The Center for Health Data Science (HeaDS), Faculty of Health and Medical Science, University of Copenhagen has an opening for a PhD trainee interested in health data science and generative deep learning. The contract will cover 3 years of employment with a start date of 6 January 2025.
About the Center for Health Data Science
The Center for Health Data Science (HeaDS) is a young, growing center that aims to strengthen data science skills at KU’s faculty of Health and Medical Science. The Center, led by Professor Anders Krogh, is made up of a well-connected research environment supported by several grants, the SUND Data Lab which provides data science support to researchers at the faculty, and a training infrastructure unit developed within the national Health Data Science Sandbox project. Our philosophy is a relaxed work environment driven by inspired and independent people.
Principal supervisor issenior consultant Jennifer Bartell
Start: 1 January 2025
Duration: 3 years as a PhD student
The position
The advertised position is focused on developing and applying deep generative models to large biomedical and health record datasets within a new research project supervised by Anders Krogh and Jennifer Bartell. This project has grown out of the Health Data Science Sandbox, a national computing infrastructure project developing training and research resources on academic HPCs.
The overarching aim of the research project (and the PhD traineeship) is to develop and test new methods for creating synthetic health datasets that can be used to support projects in precision medicine, health IT, and AI methods development. Synthetic health datasets are generated datasets that should capture the complex patterns of real, restricted-access clinical datasets via deep learning, yet pose minimal risk to patient privacy. The PhD traineeship will be a part of an NNF-funded collaboration with researchers from Aalborg University at the Center for Clinical Data Science and the Department of Law, and include interaction with the established Sandbox network. Together we aim to develop synthetic health datasets via benchmarked generative AI workflows, privacy metrics based on Bayesian statistics, and a framework for GDPR compliance of the developed methods.
Your profile
We’re looking for someone who wants to conduct innovative and impactful work at the crossroads of clinical data science, bioinformatics and generative deep learning – HeaDS has a history of success with such interdisciplinary research projects and we hope you are excited to take on this challenge.
