The Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS) is the leading supercomputing center in Spain. It houses Mare Nostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputers in Europe, was a founding and hosting member of the former European HPC infrastructure PRACE (Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe), and is now hosting entity for Euro HPC JU, the Joint Undertaking that leads large-scale investments and HPC provision in Europe. The mission of BSC is to research, develop and manage information technologies in order to facilitate scientific progress. BSC combines HPC service provision and R&D into both computer and computational science (life, earth and engineering sciences) under one roof, and currently has over 1000 staff from 60 countries.

We are particularly interested for this role in the strengths and lived experiences of women and underrepresented groups to help us avoid perpetuating biases and oversights in science and IT research. In instances of equal merit, the incorporation of the under-represented sex will be favoured.

We promote Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, fostering an environment where each and every one of us is appreciated for who we are, regardless of our differences.

If you consider that you do not meet all the requirements, we encourage you to continue applying for the job offer. We value diversity of experiences and skills, and you could bring unique perspectives to our team.

The field of medical imaging is rapidly evolving, with several key trends emerging in 2024. Growth in Advanced Imaging Techniques, Rise of Hyperspectral and Molecular Imaging, Integration of AI and Machine Learning, Focus on Patient-Centric Imaging and Emerging Technologies are just a few of the last trends in Medical Imaging. New technologies are being developed to improve imaging quality and efficiency, including 3D imaging and other innovative modalities. Deep /Machine learning technology indicates a significant transformation in how medical imaging is conducted, with a strong emphasis on technology, patient care, and improved diagnostic capabilities. Deep learning is a cutting-edge branch of artificial intelligence that empowers machines to learn from vast datasets and make intelligent decisions. By mimicking the structure and function of the human brain through artificial neural networks, deep learning algorithms excel at tasks such as image recognition, speech synthesis, and language translation.
The Life Sciences department will incorporate a new research line to harness the potential of deep learning to drive innovation and solve complex problems across various domains using advanced Artificial Intelligence methods (Medical Imaging, Deep/Machine learning, Computer Vision, etc.). This new group is committed to boost the power of advanced imaging technologies to improve healthcare outcomes. From X-rays and MRI scans to CT scans and ultrasound, medical imaging plays a crucial role in diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring of various medical conditions. Through cutting-edge research and innovation, we aim to push the boundaries of what is possible in medical imaging, developing new techniques and algorithms to enhance image quality, reduce radiation exposure, and increase diagnostic accuracy.
