PhD candidate, Feature-based machine learning for precision diagnosis of neuromuscular diseases

The Faculty of Science and the Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) are looking for a:

Neuromuscular disorders, which affect millions of people in Europe alone, lead to (progressive) muscle weakness or sensory deficits that gravely affect life expectancy and quality of life. To diagnose the disorders, needle electromyography (nEMG) data must be assessed audio-visually by experts, which is subjective and time-consuming.

In this project, experts in computer science and clinical neurophysiology will collaborate with a commercial partner to develop an artificial-intelligence platform integrating feature-based and deep learning approaches to automatically, objectively and accurately interpret nEMG data to improve the diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders ensuring explainability and responsible AI practices. Researchers of this project will validate the method using real nEMG data from around the world and take first steps towards integrating the platform into the existing software for clinical use. This position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to the cutting-edge research that will significantly impact the clinical landscape of neuromuscular disorders.

More specifically, the PhD researcher employed in this position will build on the earlier collaboration between LIACS and Leiden University Medical Center which has produced a smaller study yielding promising preliminary results using a feature-based automated classification pipeline. In the later stages of the project, the researcher will investigate the hybridisations of her/his approach with the deep learning techniques to improve the diagnostic yield.

Key responsibilities The person employed in this PhD position will be responsible for:

• conducting original and novel research in the field of applied machine learning;
• development of the methodology of classification of nEMG recordings complementary to the deep learning approach;
• design and implementation of the feature-based machine learning platform for the classification of nEMG recordings;
• integration of the developed platform within the project’s toolbox and multicentre database of anonymised patient data;
• collaboration with researchers in their own group, two other PhD students involved in the project in other institutions and their respective research groups;
• publishing and presenting scientific results at international conferences and journals;
• completing the courses on academic and transferable skills as required by Leiden University;
• providing assistance in relevant teaching activities within LIACS.

Selection Criteria The successful applicant should be a motivated university graduate who is a top performer among his/her peers and has an excellent education and/or research track record proven by relevant experience, publications, etc. Candidates in the final stages of obtaining their degree are eligible to apply. The applicant is expected to have or be close to obtaining:

• MSc degree in Computer science, Applied Mathematics, Physics, Artificial Intelligence, Data science or related field;
• Excellent programming skills in, e.g., Python and/or C++ (as evidenced by, e.g., a code repository link);
• Credible experience with Machine Learning and/or Data science projects;
• Excellent written and oral communication skills in English, Dutch proficiency or willingness to learn is a plus;
• Ability to work with diverse stakeholders, along with an affinity for connecting work in Computer Science to other relevant disciplines.

Research at our faculty The Faculty of Science is a world-class faculty where staff and students work together in a dynamic international environment. It is a faculty where personal and academic development are top priorities. Our people are committed to expand fundamental knowledge by curiosity and to look beyond the borders of their own discipline; their aim is to benefit science, and to contribute to addressing the major societal challenges of the future.

The research carried out at the Faculty of Science is very diverse, ranging from mathematics, information science, astronomy, physics, chemistry and bio-pharmaceutical sciences to biology and environmental sciences. The research activities are organised in eight institutes. These institutes offer eight bachelor’s and twelve master’s programmes. The faculty has grown strongly in recent years and now has more than 2.300 staff and almost 5,000 students. We are located at the heart of Leiden’s Bio Science Park, one of Europe’s biggest science parks, where university and business life come together.

PhD positions

Two PhD positions in regulation of metabolism

Two PhD positions are available at the laboratory of Dr. Grzegorz Sumara sponsored by the Dioscuri Center of Excellence (supported by Max Planck Society and the Polish National Science Center) and ERC Starting Grant. The laboratory is located at the at the Nencki Institute of Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw, Poland ( https://www.nencki.edu.pl/laboratories/dioscuri-center-for-metabolic-diseases/ and https://grzegorzsumaralab.nencki.edu.pl/ ). The positions are available within Sonata Bis project financed for 5 years by the National Science Center (Strategies to increase the performance of skeletal muscles and brown adipose tissue to combat obesity and related diseases).

The main aim of our laboratory is to understand the cross-talk of different classes of signaling molecules in regulation of metabolic homeostasis. We are especially interested in unraveling novel signaling modules promoting adipose tissue, skeletal muscles and intestine dysfunction during metabolic diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes as well as cancer-associated cachexia.

Ambitious projects are available to investigate the impact of kinase-mediated signaling cascades on different aspects of muscle and adipose tissue metabolism using genetic, biochemical and high-throughput screening approaches. For details of the projects please see the webpage of our PhD graduate school: https://warsaw4phd.eu/en/2223-2/research-projects/

The Nencki Institute is a leading research institute in Poland focused on different aspects of physiology and neurobiology and offers state-of-the-art research facilities and a vibrant, international scientific community: http://en.nencki.gov.pl/

Fellowship will be according to the guidelines of the National Science Center and will be financed for 48 months. Disabled applicants will be preferentially considered in case of equivalent qualifications.

Motivated, curious and independent individuals interested in joining us in Warsaw should upload a single pdf document with a cover letter stating the past and future research interests, CV and publication list at the webpage of our PhD graduate school: https://warsaw4phd.eu/en/

The admission dates are as followed:

from 24 May 2021 to 06 June 2021 – first admission round

from 04 August 2021 to 18 August 2021 – second admission round

You are also encouraged to contact us directly beforehand.

Applications from students planning to defend their Master’s thesis in near future are also welcome as the starting date is negotiable.
