The ability to extract biologically and clinically meaningful signals from high content imaging data is at the heart of insitro’s efforts to rethink drug development. We develop and apply advanced machine learning methods both to microscopy data produced in our in-house lab and to imaging data from human clinical cohorts to construct disease-relevant phenotypes and to identify causal factors for those phenotypes, which help reveal new therapeutic interventions.
As Head of Imaging you will lead the insitro imaging team within the Machine learning org on its mission to analyze insitro’s image-based datasets, develop cutting edge CV approaches to serve our needs, and contribute engineering artifacts to insitro’s ML platform. You will coordinate a team that develops infrastructure and machine-learning techniques to process both cellular in vitro data and patient medical images, in order to further insitro’s mission. You will also work closely with a cross-functional team of life scientists, statistical geneticists, bioengineers, computer vision scientists, genomics scientists, medical scientists, and software engineers to integrate human-level data with our high-throughput in-house in vitro genomic and phenotypic data, with the goal of identifying therapeutic targets and developing drugs that have high efficacy and low toxicity.
In this role, you will:
You will be joining a vibrant biotech startup that has long-term stability, due to significant funding, and is in a high growth phase. A lot can change in this early and exciting phase, providing many opportunities for significant impact. You will work closely with a very talented team, learn a broad range of skills, and help shape insitro’s culture, strategic direction, and outcomes. Join us, and help make a difference to patients!
This role is preferably based in the San Francisco Bay Area or Boston, but we are open to discussing other locations in the United States and the UK.
