We seek a 3-year, fully funded PhD student interested in Artificial
Intelligence and Machine Learning for Health. The doctoral student will
work on a newly funded Project at the Department of Computer Science at the
Sapienza University of Rome. The project is financed by the Italian
Government under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan and the Next
Generation EU (NGEU).
The Project is titled "Digital Driven Diagnostics, prognostics and
therapeutics for sustainable Health care" (D34Health)". The PhD research
activity is in the framework of the Spoke 3 "AI & Advanced Diagnostics for
the Digital Twins construction," specifically under the thematic line
related to the "Digital Twins construction: Sensors and Wearable Devices".
The Project aims to develop non-invasive data-driven approaches for
predicting, monitoring, and finding treatments for common lifestyle-related
diseases. It will leverage AI and/or VR multimodal approaches (such as the
Digital Twin and/or data visualization/navigation in VR) to predict
patients' prognostic and/or therapy response outcomes.
The PHD student will work with an international team of researchers from
various backgrounds (Human-Computer Interaction, Affective Computing,
Psychology, Medicine). The Sapienza University of Rome is one of the most
prestigious research institutions in Italy and Europe, located close to the
Eternal City historical center.
Background: Master's Degree in Computer Science,
Computer/Electronics/Biomedical Engineering, Applied Mathematics,
Statistics, Human-Computer Interaction
English fluency is a major requirement.
Important: interested students pursuing their Master's Degree (i.e., those
who did not get it yet) are eligible, assuming they will obtain their MD by
the end of 2023.
