Dear all, A fully funded PhD position is available in the Decision and Cognitive Sciences Group at Alliance Manchester Business School, University of Manchester.
The research topic is on "Data-driven optimisation techniques for personalised medicine development and delivery" and the position combines research in Bayesian optimisation, interactive user-guided search, and AI applied to the manufacture and supply chain of personalised medicine. The optimisation problems considered in the project feature time-consuming evaluations (runs of simulators), multiple objectives, constraints, uncertainties and mixed-type variables. This is a collaborative and interdisciplinary project providing the student with the opportunity to work with notable groups in the UK and Europe as well as an industrial partner that provides the domain expertise in personalised and a state-of-the-art simulator to validate the methods developed. We are looking for candidates that have a strong quantitative background (Machine Learning, Maths, Physics, Statistics), experience with Bayesian optimisation/Gaussian processes, and an interest in advancing the healthcare sector. More information about the project and how to apply for it is available here https://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/BPU657/phd-scholarship-data-driven-optimization-for-personalized-medicine-development-and-delivery The submission deadline for applications is *29th of March*. Feel free to get in touch with me ([email protected]) in case of questions about the project. Best, Richard
