Professor Oliver Y. Chén's team develops new machine-learning and statistical methods and study large-scale data in health and disease. The data are from diverse sources, from brain imaging (e.g., MRI and EEG), sequencing, mass cytometry/spectrometry, and health records, to data from digital devices such as smartphones.
The team's focus is threefold. (a) Building new, methodologically exciting models to address real-world problems; (b) using these methods to (i) study the interplays between large-scale multimodal , multivariate , high-dimensional features, and when/how they may be associated with diseases cross-sectionally and longitudinally and (ii) identify markers that support patient diagnosis and prognosis; (c) translating our algorithms into clinical decision support and patient health management apps .
Mission
Under this fully funded PhD position, the student will primarily work on three projects:
Building better biomarkers for predicting disease onset and severity via federated learning (FL). Inventing new machine learning methods, via a FL network of Electronic Health Record data, to identify clinical variables for early identification of patients with cardiometabolic, infectious, immunological, neurological, and oncological diseases and to predict disease severity Integrating sites into a federated learning network. Working as part of a team to establish a new FL network using existing relationships with healthcare providers to ensure best practices for data processing and curation and to equip the sites with new methods and algorithms Generalized federated learning (GFL). Leveraging insights from Project 1 and the infrastructure built via Project 2 to establish a technical and methodological framework for developing and validating new algorithms.The student will have the freedom to propose and develop independent studies or join other projects within the broader aims of this position and collaborate with or visit other teams.
The students will work in an interdisciplinary , multicultural environment.
The position, once filled, may start immediately.
