A Progamme Manager (PM) (Objective and Key Results Officer) position is available in the Computational Digital Pathology Lab (CDPL) at the Bioinformatics Institute (BII), Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore. The AI-based Digital Pathology (AIDP) Program aims to develop and validate advanced AI and machine learning solutions, image processing, computer vision, and mathematical modelling for the pathological diagnosis and prognosis of cancer using digitized pathology slides, including both biopsy and whole standard slides.

The innovative AI-based Digital Pathology Diagnosis (AIDP) programme is a pioneering venture set to transform the landscape of AI pathological diagnosis and solve the global shortage of pathologists and increasing cancer cases with cutting-edge AI technologies. Our focus is on bridging gaps in data quality, model generalizability and market scalability. This groundbreaking initiative aims to advance pathology practices by developing artificial intelligence systems that accurately diagnoses cancer and other diseases from digital pathology images. By leveraging state-of-the-art AI technology and advanced methodologies, we strive to achieve breakthroughs that will revolutionize the way pathologists diagnose diseases, such as Lymphoma, Gastric, Colorectal and Breast cancers, ultimately improving patient outcomes and healthcare efficiency. This program is supported by national funding and led by esteemed institutions/hospitals and cross-disciplinary leaders in the field, providing an unparalleled opportunity for professional growth and collaboration with top-tier experts.

We are seeking passionate, talented individuals to join our dynamic team. If you are driven by curiosity and have a desire to be at the forefront of AI medical innovation, this is the perfect opportunity for you. As a member of our team, you will work in a stimulating environment where creativity and initiative are highly valued. You will have access to state-of-the-art facilities, high-quality data and other resources, and the chance to contribute to high-impact research that can shape the future pathology. Our focus is on creating robust, reliable AI systems that can assist pathologists in making faster and more accurate diagnoses, ultimately leading to better patient care and improving the life quality of humankinds. We are looking for candidates who are not only skilled but also enthusiastic about making a difference. Join us in this exciting journey and be a part of something truly extraordinary!
