The Causal Systems Immunology lab, embedded within the VIB.AI Center for AI and Computational Biology, is looking for motivated software and ML engineers who want to gain hands-on experience applying AI models to fundamental biomedical problems.

Example task: Using foundation models trained on millions of microscopy images, we found a so-far unknown biological structure in the murine and human liver that maintains memory of a previously diseased state up to 40 weeks. Your task could be to fine-tune these models and implement various feature attribution methods that precisely pinpoint what features are recognized by this model.
