Our research focuses on healthy ageing and neurodegenerative and mental illness in people over the age of 65. Our expertise is drawn from geriatric psychiatry, neuropsychology, clinical psychology and computer science.

As part of this research, you will be significantly involved in designing, implementing and analysing a study on developing digital biomarkers using passive sensing. Your role will include the design of a comprehensive data analysis pipeline based on one or more available data streams. You will be responsible for pre-processing and analysing the data and developing machine-learning models to identify and validate digital biomarkers. This role requires a deep understanding of data-driven research methods and the ability to interpret complex data sets and develop innovative solutions to geriatric psychiatry and psychology challenges.

- Communication and publication of research results (specialist journals, conference papers), possibly support for testing (inpatient and outpatient) and teaching.

**Requirements**:

- Completed university degree in psychology, computer science, medical informatics or a comparable degree with a Swiss GPA of 5.0, a German GPA of 2.0, or similar GPA based on the grading system
- Interest in geriatric psychiatry/psychology, the associated challenges and possible digital solutions in response to these challenges
