Postdoctoral Fellow: Integrative cryo-electron tomography data mining
Embl-Ebi
Germany
Your role
- Develop algorithms to identify macromolecular complexes in cellular tomograms, using image processing techniques such as template matching and machine learning
- Investigate and implement methods to enhance the speed and accuracy of particle identification by increasing algorithm efficiency, refining scoring functions, and applying the latest deep learning techniques in computer vision
- Explore the integration of spatial constraints from other data sources to improve particle identification
- Co-develop PyTME ()
- Disseminate your code in well-organized, documented, and rigorously tested software packages
- Use these new methods for research projects within the TransFORM consortium
Closing date : 19 August 2024
Contract duration : 3 years (with possibility of extension up to 5 years)
Grading : Year 1 stipend - €4,010 per month after tax
Reference number : HH00228
