Postdoctoral scholar(s) for AI (computer vision and machine learning) and 
Healthcare

 One of the most exciting, yet unexplored applications of artificial 
intelligence is in healthcare. At Stanford, a newly established collaboration 
between the School of Medicine and the Computer Science department focuses on 
developing cutting edge computer vision and machine learning technologies to 
solve some of healthcare’s most urgent and critical problems. PAC, Stanford's 
Partnership  for AI-assisted Care, is co-directed by Prof. Arnold Milstein, a 
nationally recognized scholar and leader in healthcare innovation, also 
director of the Clinical Excellence Research Center at Stanford, and by Prof. 
Fei-Fei Li, a globally-distinguished researcher  in computer vision and machine 
learning, also director of the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Lab.  For more 
information, please visit http://vision.stanford.edu/pac/. PAC is now seeking 
1-2 postdoctoral scholars to work with us to develop advanced computer vision 
algorithms in real-world healthcare settings. 

Job description:

- The postdoc(s)  will work primarily with Dr. Fei-Fei Li and Dr. Arnold 
Milstein, focusing on the engineering and algorithm aspects of diverse  
clinical and healthcare applications.

- The postdoc’s primary group will be at the Vision Lab in the Computer Science 
Dept, lead by Dr. Fei-Fei Li.

- The postdoc is expected to publish at top computer vision and machine 
learning conferences (CVPR, ICCV, NIPS, etc.) as well as medical journals in 
collaboration with PAC-affiliated healthcare researchers  

- The postdoc is expected to act as a leader in the project(s) s/he is involved 
in, working with multiple collaborators ranging from CS graduate and 
undergraduate students and clinicians in and outside of Stanford.

- We have ample funding for an extended postdoc. 

- Starting in summer 2016, the earlier the better.

 

An ideal candidate should have strong background in a subset of the following 
qualifications:

- Ph.D. degree in one or some of combination of the following: robotics (mostly 
drones), computer vision, speech recognition, machine learning, and deep 
learning.

- A publication track record in top technical conferences.

- Passion for making impactful changes in the interdisciplinary field of AI for 
healthcare.

- Excellent software engineering skills, especially fluent with modern deep 
learning packages.

- Good experiences with sensors like kinect cameras, thermal cameras, etc.

- Good experiences with speech recognition software, etc.

- Excellent interpersonal skills.

- Excellent managerial and leadership skills.

- No clinical training is required. But some behavioral  or medical or social 
sciences background, or interests is a plus.

- Long term goal of becoming a faculty or research scientist.

- Passionate about making a positive difference in people’s lives.

 

If interested, please send an academic CV and 3 reference letters to both Dr. 
Fei-Fei Li (feife...@cs.stanford.edu) and Dr. Arnold Milstein 
(amilst...@stanford.edu).
