Gisele is hiring!
At the LCI, we have a long standing collaboration with Gisele Miranda, a great and kind image analyst affiliated to BIIF. Gisele is now starting her own image analysis lab! She is currently hiring 2 PhD students so if you know anyone interested, please spread the word. Here is what Gisele says:
I am excited to share that I have recently started my own research group as a SciLifeLab Fellow at KTH Royal Institute of Technology and the Science for Life Laboratory in Stockholm, Sweden. My group will focus on developing and applying cutting-edge Machine Learning techniques to deepen our understanding of cellular behavior and interactions. With a strong emphasis on generative AI, we aim to explore diverse data types, such as microscopy images and omics data, to simulate and predict biological behavior. Our work will focus on mapping complex relationships between single-cell and spatial features, driving new insights into the underlying architecture of cellular networks.
As part of building my group, I currently have two open PhD positions. I would deeply appreciate your help in spreading the word about these opportunities to potential candidates who are interested in working at the intersection of AI and biology.
