Description PhD Position: Deep Learning for Biomedical Image Analysis
Biomedical Computer Vision Group, Heidelberg University, Germany
The research group Biomedical Computer Vision (BMCV) at Heidelberg University currently offers a PhD position in the field of Biomedical Image Analysis. The aim is the development of novel methods and software for automated analysis of biomedical images using Deep Learning (e.g., segmentation, tracking, registration). The general aim is to improve medical diagnosis and therapy, and the work is carried out in cooperation with biomedical partners.
The BMCV group develops methods and algorithms for analyzing biological and medical images, in particular, cell microscopy images. A wide spectrum of methods are investigated for segmentation, tracking, and registration. A focus is on deep learning methods. The group achieved excellent results in international competitions on tracking.
