Join us in our endeavour to create a theoretical framework to understand (and hopefully treat) neurodegenerative brain diseases.
Upto 5 postdoctoral positions are available at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden
- for building multi-scale models to capture relationship between brain's structure and activity dynamics
- to analyse brain connectivity and activity data using topological data analysis
- To develop machine learning algos to extract the brain's anatomical connectivity from MRI images.
The postdoctoral researchers will become part of an interdisciplinary community of neuroscientists, clinicians, mathematicians and brain imaging experts at KTH and Karolinska Institute Stockholm.
These positions are a part of the new interdisciplinary initiative dBRAIN within the ‘Digital Futures’ initiative at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm.
The goal is to better understand neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease. We combine computational modeling, machine learning and topological data analysis to identify causal links among disease biomarkers and disease symptoms. This understanding should improve diagnosis, prediction of the disease progression and suggest better therapies.
