Research Analyst / Scientist
A machine learning-focused research position is available in the Aghaeepour lab for a candidate passionate not only about developing, but also deploying AI/ML models in real-world applications. This role offers the unique opportunity to work at the intersection of healthcare and machine learning, with direct access to clinical data, industry-leading tools, and experts in AI, and healthcare IT. Our research spans high-impact areas such as predictive analytics ,immune fitness, and the optimization of clinical workflows. Particular areas of interest include pregnancy and neonatology. We are committed to translating cutting-edge research into scalable, real-world solutions that drive meaningful improvements in patient care. We encourage (and financially support) our postdoctoral fellows to receive extensive training in entrepreneurship and business management from Stanford’s School of Business. This is an excellent opportunity for a candidate who is not only interested in participating in state-of-the-art academic research, but is also interested in exploring industrial and entrepreneurial career trajectories. Applicants from diverse backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply.
