Lead and contribute to the development, adaptation, and application of integrated biological foundation models that bridge modalities and scales
• Collaborate with internal and external research partners to extend model capabilities and translate cutting-edge methods into applied biological insights
• Design and execute experiments leveraging pan-modal biological data, from single-cell and spatial transcriptomics to multi-omic datasets
• Identify high-impact opportunities for model-driven discoveries, validation studies, and new biological use cases
• Mentor junior researchers and contribute to a culture of scientific excellence and innovation
• Communicate research outcomes in internal/external reports, presentations, and top-tier journals/conferences

Required Qualifications

• MSc / PhD (or equivalent expertise) in Computational Biology, Machine Learning, Bioinformatics, or a related technical field
• Proven track record in research and innovation in the AI for biology space as demonstrated through publications in top-tier AI/ML (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR) and/or core biology (e.g., Nature, Science, Cell) venues
• Experience developing and debugging deep learning models in PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow, ideally with an emphasis on generative models, graph neural networks, or large-scale biological data applications
• Strong understanding of biological data modalities, including some of the following: Single-cell RNA-seq, Single cell epigenetic data, Structure data analysis, Analysis of biomedical imaging data, Human phenotype data or other modalities that are relevant to the human simulation vision.

Preferred Qualifications
