hela Sverige Do you want to develop your expertise in visual analytics to make a difference to actual patients and save lives?
New genomics methods are at the core of precision medicine about to change healthcare dramatically for the better. In order to benefit from all the genomic data we will produce for tomorrow's patients, new data science methods in visualization and artificial intelligence are needed. Scientific expertise needs to be matched with clinical prerequisites in an industrial context.
We are now looking for an industrial PhD student to join the Sectra Research Department. The Research Department is responsible for developing knowledge, methods and prototypes to pave the way for product development in data-driven diagnostic medicine with a global reach. You will work in a team of scientists and closely collaborate with academic and healthcare professionals worldwide as well as with Sectra's many domain experts.
An industrial PhD combines the best of two worlds. You will have the time to delve into the very frontier of human knowledge, and to advance it. At the same time, you will work in the industry as part of a team focused on creating real, usable products.
What's in it for me?
At Sectra, you will be offered:
The opportunity to work with technology that is beneficial for life
The opportunity to learn about, and eventually push the boundaries of, key technology areas of our time
A rewarding and challenging workplace where you work in teams with smart and talented people just like you, on both the industrial and academic sides
An organization where you will be listened to and where you have a real opportunity to make a difference
An international environment with the opportunity to work in, or with, other countries and cultures. We have 28 nationalities in the Linköping office alone
In this position, you will:
Conduct research on visual analytics for a key emerging area of precision medicine: data-driven clinical genomics
Participate in a PhD student training program at Linköping University, a leading Swedish university, in a strong environment with other students and researchers in visualization and AI
Contribute to novel, technically advanced, and user-oriented innovations in interaction with Sectra's product development team to transfer knowledge and prototypes
After four years, obtain a PhD degree
This position is an opportunity out of the ordinary. Intense efforts will be needed at times, and high flexibility is required. We are looking for someone who sees the multifaceted challenges of this position in a positive light, as a path to a rewarding, extraordinary professional life.
For this position, the following requirements apply:
A Master of Science degree in computer science or a related area
Fluency in English. If not fluent in Swedish, a strong ambition to learn Swedish (it is the expected work language for this position after at most 12 months)
A strong will to turn advanced technology into usable solutions in healthcare
Very good academic grades, especially in mathematics courses, combined with an aptitude for human-computer interaction aspects
Assets
Most of all, we are looking for an open, passionate person who shares our values, is a true team player and will enjoy working with us at Sectra.
In addition, we consider it an asset if you also:
Speak more languages than those required above
Have experience of other cultures
Have interests besides school/work, such as sports, sports leader, music, horseback riding, singing or flying (if you happen to have a pilot's license, you can fly to our customers in our own Sectra airplane) or anything else that makes you stand out from the crowd
Additional academic credentials
Please make sure to attach your CV, cover letter and transcripts/grades from both university and gymnasium/ upper-secondary school in your application.
