Anderson Cancer Center is to eliminate cancer in Texas, the nation, and the world through outstanding programs that integrate patient care, research, and prevention, and through education for undergraduate and graduate students, trainees, professionals, employees, and the public.
The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has the potential to unlock the power of data by further developing and investing in talent, team science and infrastructure to optimize multidimensional data integration, analysis, and application for the benefit of patients with cancer.
The Chung lab's major research focus is to develop quantitative imaging pipelines and predictive tools to be used in: 1) tumor response assessment 2) treatment-related toxicity; and 3) personalization of radiotherapy and multimodal treatment.
In addition, the lab is working on the standardization of collection and nomenclature of images to facilitate meaningful measurement and interpretation of imaging biomarkers across departments and institutions to support efforts aligned with the Institute for Data Science in Oncology.
Quantitative imaging research is a key component to enabling and guiding personalized oncological patient care.The Chung Lab has an additional role in supporting the Tumor Measurement Initiative (TMI) aims to build an institutional platform to support standardized, automated, quantitative imaging-based tumor measurement across each patient's journey to advance multidisciplinary, data-driven, high precision cancer treatment.
The primary purpose of the Associate Data Scientist position is to provide support for building pipelines and tools to support data curation, analysis, extraction of tumor measurements and building predictive tools for tumor response and toxicity to normal tissues.
This activity requires a combination of computational skills, technical expertise in quantitative imaging, understanding of oncology and oncology treatment and strong teaming and communication.
This individual will have demonstrated experience with programming languages and scripting methods (Python, MATLAB, C++, CUDA, Bash, and/or SQL), machine learning / deep learning methods, data analytics, and image analysis.
Successful candidates will collaborate with other data scientists, IT personnel, collaborating faculty and trainees to address key clinical challenges that impact our patients.
