Offer Description

Within the I3M LabCom, we are working on the development of Artificial Intelligence orchestrators aimed at simplifying the deployment of algorithms closer to clinical needs. These orchestrators are currently in the development and optimization phase to meet the diverse needs of Artificial Intelligence (AI) stakeholders, particularly for active learning, generative models, and Transformers techniques. We aim to showcase the strategic advantage of these tools within healthcare structures.

The I3M utilizes 3 Tesla and 7 Tesla data in neuroimaging, along with related data (neuropsychological, biological), which are relatively rare and require specific exploitation. The selected candidate will work within the ultra-high field platform of the University Hospital of Poitiers as part of the joint laboratory I3M for the VIDALZ regional project. This project aims to develop Artificial Intelligence approaches for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. A part of this project involves developing image processing tools to analyze, integrate, and contextualize multimodal imaging data for Alzheimer's disease diagnosis within our infrastructures.

The selected candidate will work on:
• Integrating existing solutions (currently developed in the laboratory) into the LabCom infrastructure. During this integration, the candidate must evaluate the storage, processing, and data transmission capacities, as well as the system's flexibility and scalability to accommodate new AI algorithms and models.

• Developing innovative methods for processing and analyzing MRI images (3 Tesla and 7 Tesla) of various modalities and formats (NIFTI, DICOM, etc.) using machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques. The aim is to improve the accuracy of medical diagnostics, identify biomarkers, and understand the characteristics of pathologies in MRI data. These approaches should be generalizable and applicable to other pathologies such as tumors, multiple sclerosis, etc

XLIM Laboratory in collaboration with the University Hospital of Poitiers as part of the joint laboratory I3M.
The I3M Laboratory (Multi-nucleus Multi-organ Metabolic Imaging) is a joint CNRS-company laboratory, involving SIEMENS HEALTHINNERS, the University Hospital, and the University of Poitiers.
