Subject: [AUDITORY] Academic Postdoc in AI/ML Applied to Voice, Speech, Gait, and Eye Tracking at Mayo Clinic in Rochester From: Botha, Hugo, M.B., Ch.B. <"Botha, Hugo, M.B., Ch.B."> Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2024 14:51:51 +0000--_000_CH3PR01MB82489D2BAFE9601512EE0CE3F1A22CH3PR01MB8248prod_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear list, We are seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher (up to 5 years) in AI/ML to join u= s in the Neurology AI Program at Mayo Clinic in Rochester. We are accumulat= ing hundreds of voice/speech recordings in our patients each month, as well= as quantitative gait and eye tracking data. We have federal funding to use= these to detect and monitor disease, for example: * Voice/Speech: Develop deep learning models using remote voice recordings = to monitor neurodegenerative diseases like frontotemporal dementia. * Text: Apply natural language processing to transcriptions to detect early= signs of Alzheimer's disease. * Gait Analytics: Predict falls and response to interventions using quantit= ative gait metrics. * Eye Movements: Use eye-tracking data for prognostication in atypical park= insonian disorders. As noted in the job posting, a candidate with proficiency in python is pref= erred, but most signal processing / engineering / physics / statistical bac= kgrounds will be accepted. Given the strong focus on speech/voice and audio= based AI/ML, I thought this list would be a good one to share the opportun= ity with: https://fa-euwp-saasfaprod1.fa.ocs.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperienc= e/en/sites/Mayo-US/job/337897 Sincerely Hugo Botha --_000_CH3PR01MB82489D2BAFE9601512EE0CE3F1A22CH3PR01MB8248prod_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html xmlns:o=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:w=3D"urn:sc= hemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns:m=3D"http://schemas.microsoft.com/of= fice/2004/12/omml" xmlns=3D"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"> <head> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3Dus-ascii"= > <meta name=3D"Generator" content=3D"Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"> <style><!-- /* Font Definitions */ @xxxxxxxx {font-family:"Cambria Math"; panose-1:2 4 5 3 5 4 6 3 2 4;} @xxxxxxxx {font-family:Aptos; panose-1:2 11 0 4 2 2 2 2 2 4;} @xxxxxxxx {font-family:"Segoe UI"; panose-1:2 11 5 2 4 2 4 2 2 3;} /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {margin:0in; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif; mso-ligatures:standardcontextual;} a:link, span.MsoHyperlink {mso-style-priority:99; color:#467886; text-decoration:underline;} span.EmailStyle17 {mso-style-type:personal-compose; font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif; color:windowtext;} .MsoChpDefault {mso-style-type:export-only; font-size:11.0pt;} @xxxxxxxx WordSection1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.0in 1.0in 1.0in;} div.WordSection1 {page:WordSection1;} --></style> </head> <body lang=3D"EN-US" link=3D"#467886" vlink=3D"#96607D" style=3D"word-wrap:= break-word"> <div class=3D"WordSection1"> <p class=3D"MsoNormal">Dear list,<o:p></o:p></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal">We are seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher (up to 5 ye= ars) in AI/ML to join us in the Neurology AI Program at Mayo Clinic in Roch= ester.
