Description
The Team
CZI supports the science and technology that will make it possible to cure, prevent, or manage all diseases by the end of this century. While this may seem like an audacious goal, in the last 100 years, biomedical science has made tremendous strides in understanding biological systems, advancing human health, and treating disease.
We build open source software tools and leverage artificial intelligence to accelerate the pace of biomedicine. We fund scientific research worldwide to advance the frontiers of knowledge. And we launched a family of institutes to do research that can't be done in conventional environments. Each aspect is essential to our approach to building for the long term.
CZI's includes grantmaking programs, open-source software development, and close collaboration with its partner institutes at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Network. The CZ Biohub Network includes the San Francisco, Chicago, and New York Biohubs as well as the Chan Zuckerberg Imaging Institute. CZI also collaborates with institutional partners like the Kempner Institute for the Study of Natural & Artificial Intelligence at Harvard University. Join us in accelerating science.
The AI/ML team is funding and building one of the dedicated to nonprofit life science research in the world. This new effort will provide the scientific community with access to predictive models of healthy and diseased cells, which will lead to groundbreaking new discoveries that could help researchers cure, prevent, or manage all diseases by the end of this century.
The Opportunity
As a Senior/Staff Research Scientist on the AI/ML team you will conduct original research in developing state-of-the-art methods in artificial intelligence and machine learning to solve important problems in the life sciences aligned with CZI's mission. The era of big data in biology is upon us, driven by advancements in high-throughput measurement techniques, generating vast amounts of rich multimodal data. You will work as part of a diverse team of AI scientists and engineers leveraging large multimodal datasets to build foundation models that advance both the state-of-the-art in AI as well as our understanding of biological systems. You will also have the opportunity to work on aspects of AI for scientific discovery to build systems that embed AI systems deeply into the process of proposing and generating new scientific insights and reify existing ones into scalable systems.
You will have the opportunity to work closely with teams of scientists, computational biologists, and engineers within CZI and to collaborate with CZI grantees, CZ institutes, and other external labs and organizations. Your work will inspire and enhance the production and analysis of datasets by CZ teams and collaborators.
