As part of these efforts, the Chair of Medical Informatics (krauthammerlab) investigates topics in clinical data science and translational bioinformatics, such as knowledge discovery from Big Data sources (Electronic Medical Records, health registries) as well as the analysis of human Omics data.
Your responsibilities We are currently looking for a motivated PostDoc in Health AI who will work at the intersection of computation, biology and medicine. Particularly, the candidate will support our ongoing work in applying AI to the space of genetic engineering, including the prediction of base editor outcomes, the optimization of base editors and the optimal use of base editors in complex genetic diseases (see recent publications [1,2,3,4]). This work is part of the University Research Priority Program (URPP) «Human Reproduction Reloaded»

The PostDoc will be involved in other ongoing lab activities (particularly the supervision of junior lab members and some teaching activities) and will be an integral part of the URPP research community. We offer an interdisciplinary research environment, the possibility to direct your own research, access to state-of-the-art computational resources' infrastructure (further details are listed below) and a formidable place to grow academically.
