Biomed AI Innovator — Drug Discovery Accelerator in London

The AI Accelerator is a brand-new, London-based hub, comprising computational biology, human genetics, data and AI expertise. The purpose of the AI Accelerator is to provision production-quality, versatile, foundational biomedical AI capabilities that can be adapted and deployed to improve and accelerate portfolio decision-making, furthering understanding of the biology driving patient outcomes and identifying mechanisms that increase probability of success.

To achieve this purpose, the AI Accelerator is organised around three key capabilities:

• AI Systems: Focussing on neural methods to integrate data and impute and infer across the biomedical landscape. This includes electronic health records and medical imaging to support patient segmentation, ‘omics data to understand gene regulation and identify novel therapeutic concepts, and predicting transcriptional change for a given disease-causing variant.
• AI Reasoning: Supplementing AI Systems by developing approaches to identify cause and effect, predict the outcome of an intervention, and provide a rationale for a model decision. This could involve providing causal structure to multi-omics data, orthogonal rationale to a black-box model generated hypothesis, and identifying features that are driving model predictions.
• AI Enablement: Supporting AI Systems and AI Reasoning by provisioning harmonised multimodal data for distributed training, managing the model lifecycle, and partnering with the IT organisation to ensure necessary infrastructure and tooling to prototype, implement, adapt and deploy AI capabilities.

None of the above can be achieved without people. We are looking for AI scientists, machine learning engineers, research engineers, data engineers, MLOps engineers and AI infrastructure engineers from senior up to senior staff level and people leaders in AI science and engineering. If you are passionate about using your talents to build state-of-the-art AI approaches that will advance the portfolio and skilled in the required disciplines, please register your interest.

Please note that this is a talent community, not a particular recruitment process. There will be no follow-up communication on this application. By applying you agree to being contacted by us, should there be a new opening in the future, matching your professional profile and/or interest in a particular position stated by you in your application form.
