Roche Postdoctoral Fellowship (RPF) in Movement Assessment with Advanced Analytics (as soon as possible, 2 years)

At Roche, we believe it’s urgent to deliver medical solutions right now - even as we develop innovations for the future. We are passionate about transforming patients’ lives and we are fearless in both decision and action. And we believe that good business means a better world.

That is why we come to work every single day. We commit ourselves to scientific rigour, unassailable ethics, and access to medical innovations for all. We do this today to build a better tomorrow.

Who we are

The Roche Pharma Research and Early Development Informatics team is the bridge between digital technology and science. We are driving medical innovation and are integral to the realization of truly Personalized Healthcare and the development of innovative treatments for patients. The Advanced Analytics Postdoc Program aims at fostering frontier science and technology, engaging young talented scientists at the postdoctoral level, expanding and strengthening Roche’s scientific relationships with academia. The duration of the Roche Postdoctoral Fellowship (RPF) program is initially set for two years, with the possibility of extension for a third year. You will be based in Basel, Switzerland with possible stays at the academic partners.

What the position is about

As a member of the Roche Data Science team, you will focus on the research and development of advanced analytics approaches of sensor-based motion analysis for neurological movement disorders. The aim of this project is to gain the insights of motor characteristics in patients with neurodegenerative diseases and improve the monitoring of disease progression or treatment efficacy via deep diving into the sensor data, modeling them and making publishable scientific discoveries.

In this position you will

  • Benefit from working in a multidisciplinary team of scientists at Roche as well as disease area specialists to contribute directly to research and clinical projects
  • Apply cutting-edge analytical methods and machine learning models to investigate patient-tailored clinical outcome options
  • Have the opportunity to become a member of the Advanced Analytic Network (AAN) within Roche with exposure to multiple Roche analytical groups
  • The position could be either based in Basel (Switzerland) or in Little Falls (US)

What your responsibilities will be

  • Evaluating and incorporating the state-of-the-art analytic methodologies and models for sequential skeleton data representation and disease phenomenology
  • Identifying, extracting,and engineering clinically relevant features from the data to gain more understanding of the association of the motor phenotypes and the diseases
  • Implementing or internalizing robust machine learning models for motor phenotype recognition. The expected products include but are not limited to deep learning models on raw skeleton data or video data representation
  • Analyzing the correlation between the output of the implemented models and gold-standard rating scales
  • Publishing results in high-impact journals, and presenting them at international symposia.

Who you are

A highly motivated person with a PhD in computer science, mathematics, informatics, statistics, or a related discipline which was obtained not longer than 3 years ago. You have strong communication skills, are passionate about exploring new frontiers of science and willing to thrive in multi-disciplinary teams to deliver excellent results. Ideal skills for the position include:

  • Strong background and hands-on experience with statistical analysis, signal processing methodologies, machine learning (deep learning) and time series analysis
  • Knowledge in disease biology preferably in neurodegenerative diseases
  • Excellent skills in Python or R and willing to learn and switch to any new tools and frameworks
  • Experience in publishing analytical findings in biomedical or clinical journals
  • A self-motivated and curious problem solver, with demonstrated planning abilities

All applications need to include a CV, motivation letter, a publication list and, if available, your PhD diploma!
