Senior Research Scientist (PREP0004779)
Key responsibilities will include but are not limited to:
- Developing new AI architectures for meniscus removal using image-to-image regression networks.
- Create a solution that can generalize the meniscus removal regardless of the content being imaged.
- Create a model that predicts an image quality metric based on a group of existing blur metrics from the literature and compare that solution with a regular convolutional neural network.
- Produce high-quality publications based on research and results present at internal and external meetings and conferences.
Qualifications
- US citizenship is preferred.
- A PhD degree in Computer Science with 3 or more years of relevant experience.
- Expertise in PyTorch/Python and state of the Art AI models like vision transformers and advanced CNNs.
- Ability to build deployable complex software solutions for cell image analysis.
- Strong oral and written communication skills and strong presentation skills.

Purpose: The National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) hosts the Professional Research Experience Program (PREP) which is designed to provide valuable laboratory experience and financial assistance to undergraduates, post-bachelor’s degree holders, graduate students, master’s degree holders, postdocs, and faculty.
PREP is a 5-year cooperative agreement between NIST laboratories and participating PREP Universities to establish a collaborative research relationship between NIST and U.S. institutions of higher education in the following disciplines including (but may not be limited to) biochemistry, biological sciences, chemistry, computer science, engineering, electronics, materials science, mathematics, nanoscale science, neutron science, physical science, physics, and statistics. This collection of information is needed to facilitate administrative functions of the PREP Program.
Routine Uses: NIST will use the information collected to perform the requisite reviews of the applications to determine eligibility, and to meet programmatic requirements. Disclosure of this information is also subject to all the published routine uses as identified in the Privacy Act System of Records Notices: NIST-1: NIST Associates.
Disclosure: Furnishing this information is voluntary. When you submit the form, you are indicating your voluntary consent for NIST to use of the information you submit for the purpose stated.
