Partial Home Office possible

At Helmholtz Munich, we develop groundbreaking solutions for a healthier society in a rapidly changing world. We believe that diverse perspectives drive innovation. Through strong partnerships, we accelerate the transfer of new ideas from the lab to real-life applications, improving lives.

The Horvath Lab at the Institute of AI for Health (AIH) aims to build large deep learning models for digital pathology to resolve single cell heterogeneity and identify subtle cellular differences in cancers. The method is used to identify cancer clones in melanoma cases and support clinical decisions with deep molecular analysis of the detected tumor clones.

The postdoc (f/m/x) will build robust single cell-based foundation models on digital pathology images and will combine AI with our latest Deep Visual Proteomics workflow.
