Description

Paris Brain Institute (ICM) is recruiting a:

_Junior engineer biological image analysis (M/F) _

_Per direct _

_18 months (renewable) _

_A Paris 13ème _

  • The Paris Brain Institute (ICM) is a private foundation recognized as being of public utility, whose purpose is _
- fundamental and clinical research on the nervous system. On the same site, 700 researchers, engineers and _
- doctors cover all the disciplines of neurology, with the aim of accelerating discoveries on the functioning of _
- the brain and the development of treatments for diseases such as: Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, _
- epilepsy, depression, paraplegia, tetraplegia, etc._***
POSITION

  • Context _
The Paris Brain Institute is investing in cutting-edge technologies and expertise as part of its transversal
approach to the discovery of new treatments for neurological diseases. The Data Analysis Core facility (DAC)
mission within this ambitious program is to develop new tools and analyses, coordinate FAIR data governance
across the institute, and accompany researchers in exploiting the full potential of the institute's technology
and data ecosystem. The DAC consists of an enthusiastic interdisciplinary team of experts in biostatistics,
bioinformatics, computational neuroscience, and data management. We accompany researchers throughout
the research cycle, from idea to publication. We perform analyses, develop databases, and offer training in
data analysis and good practices in data management. We are currently recruiting new team members to
strengthen our expertise in bioinformatics (spatial transcriptomics), image analysis using deep learning
(microscopy, histology, and neuroimaging), and research data governance. If you are interested in the brain

  • Job description (mission) _

PROFILE

  • Knowhow (savoirfaire) _
  • Fluency in manipulation, visualization and conversion of images, including highres (pyramidal) for
- mats

  • Knowledge of tools, libraries and deep learning / machine learning / AI procedures in (biological)
image analysis

and algorithms in image segmentation and classification

  • Experience using deep learning / machine learning / AI for analyzing microscopy images is highly
desired but not required

but not required
_Knowledge (savoir) _

  • Bac+5 (master or engineer) computer science/biostatistics/bioinformatics with a focus on machine
learning in (biological/medical) image analysis, or equivalent level through professional experience in
a similar field

  • Image analysis in Python (required) and R/MATLAB/C/C++ (desired)
  • Project management using Gitlab
  • Soft skills (savoirêtre) _
  • Autonomy to quickly learn new methods adapted to the wide variety of data
  • Ability to integrate into a multidisciplinary team with team spirit, and a collaborative working style_ _
