Context And Mission

The Barcelona Supercomputing Center – Centro Nacional de Supercomputación, BSC-CNS, is Europe’s leading center for supercomputing research. The successful candidate will work in a highly advanced HPC environment, with access to state-of-the-art computational infrastructures, and will collaborate with experts from clinical, academic, and technological institutions at national and international levels.
The Digital Health Unit, led by Dr. Paula Petrone, applies artificial intelligence to healthcare with the goal of developing innovative, clinically meaningful, and scalable solutions that can have a real impact on patients and health systems.
This position will contribute to the LiverAim project, a European collaborative project focused on improving liver disease risk assessment. The selected candidate will work on AI-based approaches for liver risk prediction using clinical, biochemical, lifestyle, biomarker, and FibroScan-related data.
In parallel, the candidate will contribute to other strategic research lines of the Digital Health Unit,



particularly the development and application of vision-language models, multimodal AI, foundation models, and generative AI approaches for healthcare.
We encourage applications from all genders and candidates from underrepresented groups.

Key Duties
- Develop AI models for liver risk assessment using clinical, biochemical, lifestyle, biomarker, and FibroScan-related data
- Work with heterogeneous biomedical datasets, including structured clinical data, imaging-derived variables, biomarkers, and other health-related data sources.
- Develop predictive models using machine learning, deep learning, multimodal learning, transformers, foundation models, and generative AI approaches.
- Contribute to Digital Health Unit projects involving medical image analysis, vision-language models, multimodal clinical data, and biomedical foundation models.
- Collaborate with clinicians, biomedical researchers, data scientists, and
