We are looking for our future postdoctoral researcher in anatomical digital twins to join the IDS department within the IMAGES group at Telecom Paris.

The position is funded by the AIR-TWIN pre-maturation project, which aims to transfer deep learning research code to generate high-fidelity digital twins of the pulmonary bronchial tree from chest CT scans. The objective is to provide a ready-to-use Python demonstrator, intended for external evaluation for clinical and/or research applications, and to enable rapid integration into numerical simulation systems and/or surgical planning environments.

The deep learning model has already been validated on large-scale CT cohorts. The current phase focuses on packaging the research code, supporting the implementation of new tests on disease-specific cohorts, and simplifying the editing and visualization of 3D lung tree models.

Your main responsabilities :

• To carry out research missions in the field of processing and analysis of medical images and manipulation of 3D anatomical geometric models

• To ensure supervision and tutoring missions

• To contribute to the reputation of the School, the Institut Mines-Télécom and the Institut Polytechnique de Paris

You hold a PhD or equivalent. You have in-depth theoretical or applied knowledge in the following areas: Deep learning for image processing; Python programming language, particularly with the following libraries: PyTorch, Lightning, MONAI, NumPy, Scikit-Learn, PIL, OpenCV, SciPy, Pandas; Computer code development and integration tools: Docker, version control. In addition, you are proficient in computer code documentation and writing technical documentation to support codes and software.
